Analytical expression of the purine/pyrimidine codon probability after and before random mutations.

Bulletin of mathematical biology - 1 Nov 1993

Abstract excerpt

Recently, we proposed a new model of DNA sequence evolution (Arquès and Michel. 1990b. Bull. math. Biol. 52, 741-772) according to which actual genes on the purine/pyrimidine (R/Y) alphabet (R = purine = adenine or guanine, Y = pyrimidine = cytosine or thymine) are the result of two successive ev...
