Why is the number of DNA bases 4?
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we construct a mathematical model for DNA replication based on Shannon's mathematical theory for communication. We treat DNA replication as a communication channel. We show that the mean replication rate is maximal with four nucleotide bases under the primary assumption that the pairing time of the G-C bases is between 1.65 and 3 times the pairing time of the A-T bases.

Abstract The question is about the “why”s in dealing with the basis. Why is disciplinary liability raised for the physicians? However, searching for the goal, the objective is to find out “why” do physicians face disciplinary liability? Answers to these two questions are to be particularly determined by comparison with the bases and goals of criminal and civil liabilitie...
متن کاملNew Bases for Polynomial-Based Spaces
Since it is well-known that the Vandermonde matrix is ill-conditioned, while the interpolation itself is not unstable in function space, this paper surveys the choices of other new bases. These bases are data-dependent and are categorized into discretely l2-orthonormal and continuously L2-orthonormal bases. The first one construct a unitary Gramian matrix in the space l2(X) while the late...

The hydration of biomolecules is vitally important in molecular biology, so in this paper thesolvation energy and radial distribution function of DNA bases have been calculated by theMonte Carlo simulation.The geometries of isolated Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thyminehave been optimized using 6-31+G(d,p) basis function sets. These geometries then will be used inthe Monte Carlo calculation o...
