Codon Size Reduction as the Origin of the Triplet Genetic Code
The genetic code appears to be optimized in its robustness to missense errors and frameshift errors. In addition, the genetic code is near-optimal in terms of its ability to carry information in addition to the sequences of encoded proteins. As evolution has no foresight, optimality of the modern genetic code suggests that it evolved from less optimal code variants. The length of codons in the ...
متن کاملthe effect of consciousness raising (c-r) on the reduction of translational errors: a case study
در دوره های آموزش ترجمه استادان بیشتر سعی دارند دانشجویان را با انواع متون آشنا سازند، درحالی که کمتر به خطاهای مکرر آنان در متن ترجمه شده می پردازند. اهمیت تحقیق حاضر مبنی بر ارتکاب مکرر خطاهای ترجمانی حتی بعد از گذراندن دوره های تخصصی ترجمه از سوی دانشجویان است. هدف از آن تاکید بر خطاهای رایج میان دانشجویان مترجمی و کاهش این خطاها با افزایش آگاهی و هوشیاری دانشجویان از بروز آنها است.از آنجا ک...
15 صفحه اولCase for the genetic code as a triplet of triplets.
The efficiency of codon translation in vivo is controlled by many factors, including codon context. At a site early in the Salmonella flgM gene, the effects on translation of replacing codons Thr6 and Pro8 of flgM with synonymous alternates produced a 600-fold range in FlgM activity. Synonymous changes at Thr6 and Leu9 resulted in a twofold range in FlgM activity. The level of FlgM activity pro...
متن کاملThe origin of the genetic code.
A new approach to the origin of the genetic code is proposed based on some regularities in the nucleotide distribution pattern of the code. The relative amounts of various amino acids in primitive proteins were possibly different from those in organisms living today. The primordial ratio was supposed to shift to the modern one guided by the action of primitive nucleotides. Each primitive tRNA h...
متن کاملOrigins of the genetic code: the escaped triplet theory.
There is very significant evidence that cognate codons and/or anticodons are unexpectedly frequent in RNA-binding sites for seven of eight biological amino acids that have been tested. This suggests that a substantial fraction of the genetic code has a stereochemical basis, the triplets having escaped from their original function in amino acid-binding sites to become modern codons and anticodon...
