The case for the anticode

Abstract

The present paper will focus on developments related to the origin of the DNA code. Principally these items are: (a) a new set of correlations which include ranked hydrophobicities of amino acids and dinucleotides; (b) binding constants of Phe for the four mononucleotides; and (c) binding constants of Phe, Leu, Ile, Val, and Gly for polyadenylic acid (poly A). The data continue to support a model for the origin of the code based on relationships between amino acids and their anticodons.
