The genetic code was originally deciphered, in part, by experiments in which synthetic polynucleotides with repeating sequences were used as mRNAs to direct protein synthesis in cell-free extracts. Under these conditions, ribosomes could be made to start translation anywhere within the RNA molecules, with no start codon necessary. What peptide would be made by translation from a synthetic mRNA made of the repeating dinucleotide CGCG…?

Answer:

Translation is the process in which ribosomes in the cytoplasm or endoplasmic reticulum synthesize proteins. The process starts where the mRNAs (messenger RNA) copies the DNA and sends this message to the ribosome. In the ribosome for each triplet of nucleotide an amino acid is bond to the growing chain of amino acid that will eventually form a protein.

You can look up for the translation for the genetic on the internet. Which tells you which triplet codifies for an specific amino acid.

If the code reads. CGC GCG CGC GCG etc.

The result would be an a peptide/protein containing alternating arginines and alanines, because CGC codifies for Arginine and GCG codifies for alanine.
