A supersymmetric model for the evolution of the genetic code
journal contribution
posted on 2023-05-16, 11:07 authored by Bashford, JD, Tsohantjis, I, Peter JarvisPeter JarvisA model is presented for the structure and evolution of the eukaryotic and vertebrate mitochondrial genetic codes, based on the representation theory of the Lie superalgebra A(5,0) ≃ sl(6/1). A key role is played by pyrimidine and purine exchange symmetries in codon quartets.
