Biology and Honors biology people:

Here are the notes on Central Dogma of Molecular Biology (RNA and Protein Synthesis)

On the next to last slide there is a table that shows ALL of the three letter abbreviations for the amino acid names. Use these 3-letter abbreviations in your homework and on tests.
