Symmetry and Codon Usage Correlations in the Genetic Code
The ratios of the codon usage in the quartets and sextets for the vertebrate series exhibit a correlated behaviour which fits naturally in the framework of the crystal basis model of the genetic code [1]. Moreover the observed universal behaviour of these suitably normalized ratios can be easily explained. LAPTH-709/98 physics/9812041 December 1998
متن کاملCoding translational rates: the hidden genetic code
In this paper we propose that translational rate is modulated by pairs of consecutive codons or bicodons. By a statistical analysis of coding sequences, associated with low or with high abundant proteins, we found some bicodons with significant preference usage for either of these sets. These usage preferences cannot be explained by the frequency usage of the single codons. We compute a pause p...
متن کاملThe Genetic Code the Concept of a Gene-protein Code
Genetic memory resides in specific molecules of nucleic acid. The information is encoded in the form of a linear sequence of bases of 4 varieties that corresponds to sequences of 20 varieties of amino acids in protein. The translation from nucleic acid to protein proceeds in a sequential fashion according to a systematic code with relatively simple rules. Each unit of nucleic acid definesthe sp...
متن کاملGenetic Code: Four-Codon and Non-Four-Codon Degeneracy
In this work it is shown that 20 canonical amino acids (AAs) within genetic code appear to be a whole system with strict distinction in Genetic Code Table (GCT) into some different quantums: 20, 23, 61 amino acid molecules. These molecules distinction is followed by specific balanced atom number and/or nucleon number distinctions within those molecules. One of the most important question that h...
متن کاملAn expanded genetic code with a functional quadruplet codon.
With few exceptions the genetic codes of all known organisms encode the same 20 amino acids, yet all that is required to add a new building block are a unique tRNA/aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase pair, a source of the amino acid, and a unique codon that specifies the amino acid. For example, the amber nonsense codon, TAG, together with orthogonal Methanococcus jannaschii or Escherichia coli tRNA/synt...
