Evolution of the genetic code: partial optimization of a random code for robustness to translation error in a rugged fitness landscape
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The standard genetic code table has a distinctly non-random structure, with similar amino acids often encoded by codons series that differ by a single nucleotide substitution, typically, in the third or the first position of the codo...
