Abstract excerpt
The first symmetry by base substitutions of degeneracy in the genetic code was described by Rumer (1966) and the other symmetries were identified later by Jestin (2006) and Jestin and Soulé (2007). Here, a rationale accounting for these symmetries is reported. The number of non-synonymous substitutions over the replicated coding sequence is written as a function of the substitution matrix, whose elements are the...
