  • Title: [Hidden symmetry of the genetic code and laws of amino acid interaction].
    Author: Chipens GI.
    Journal: Bioorg Khim; 1991 Oct; 17(10):1335-46. PubMed ID: 1804117.
    Abstract:
    Natural amino acids having common antiamino acids are divided into families and groups according to the algorithm of the genetic code (a-n-n-a, amino acid-codon-anticodon-antiamino acid). Members of these groups are placed symmetrically in the structure of the genetic code. In the course of evolution, those point mutations are predominantly accepted retained. In homologous proteins of phylogenetically related organisms which lend to amino acids belonging to one family or group and having common antiamino acids. This assumption is in agreement with L. B. Mekler's theory (1969) of the amino acid interaction code a-a.
