Symmetry Scheme for Amino Acid Codons [PDF]
Phys.Rev.E65, 021912 (2002), 2003 Group theoretical concepts are invoked in a specific model to explain how only twenty amino acids occur in nature out of a possible sixty four. The methods we use enable us to justify the occurrence of the recently discovered twenty first amino acid selenocysteine, and also enables us to predict the possible existence of two more, as yet undiscovered ...
