The neutral emergence of error minimized genetic codes superior to the standard genetic code.

Journal of theoretical biology - 7 Nov 2016

Massey Steven E

Abstract excerpt

The standard genetic code (SGC) assigns amino acids to codons in such a way that the impact of point mutations is reduced, this is termed 'error minimization' (EM). The occurrence of EM has been attributed to the direct action of selection, however it is difficult to explain how the searching of alternative codes for an error minimized code can occur via codon reassignments, given that these are likely to be...
