Polypeptide synthesis is signalled by two initiation codons commonly AUG or methionine codon and rarely GUG or valine codon. Since there are 64 triplet codons and only 20 amino acids, the insertion of some amino must get influenced by more than one codon.
Only tryptophan (UGG) and methonine (AUG) are specified by single codons. AUG codes for methionine in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
