      CUA – GAU
      CUG- GAC
      CUU – GAA
      CUC – GAG
      UUA – AAU
      UUG – AAC

      What I have done wrong in this problem?

      I said REVERSE complement, so you have to turn it around 😉 so:
      CUA -> UAG
      CUG -> CAG
      etc. 😉

      Why do you have to reverse it?

      because the triplets bind with anticodons in reversed order 😉
