The Genetic Code and Other Theories

One of the groups of theories about the origin of the genetic code states that the code has to be the way it is, and is therefore universal, for stereochemical" reasons. In other words, phenylalanine, f. ex. must be represented by the triplets UUU and UUC because phenylalanine is somehow stereochemically related to these two codons 52,53,56,57) This seems likely, since steric fit is an essential property of the processes of replication, transcription and translation. That doesn t mean that one has conclusive evidence for such a statement. It only means that the theoreticians are groping in such a direction. [Pg.51]
