چکیده

A new trinucleotide proposition is proved here and allows all the trinucleotide circular codes on the genetic alphabet to be identified (their numbers and their sets of words). This new class of genetic motifs, i.e. circular codes (or synchronizing genetic motifs), may be involved in the structure and the origin of the genetic code, and in reading frames of genes.

A relation between trinucleotide comma-free codes and trinucleotide circular codes

The comma-free codes and circular codes are two important classes of codes in code theory and in genetics. Fifty years ago before the discovery of the genetic code, a trinucleotide (triletter) comma-free code was proposed for associating the codons of genes with the amino acids of proteins. More recently, in the last ten years, trinucleotide circular codes have been identified statistically in ...

An analytical model of gene evolution with six mutation parameters: An application to archaeal circular codes

We develop here an analytical evolutionary model based on a trinucleotide mutation matrix 64 x 64 with six substitution parameters associated with the transitions and transversions in the three trinucleotide sites. It generalizes the previous models based on the nucleotide mutation matrices 4 x 4 and the trinucleotide mutation matrix 64 x 64 with three parameters. It determines at some time t t...

n-Nucleotide circular codes in graph theory.

The circular code theory proposes that genes are constituted of two trinucleotide codes: the classical genetic code with 61 trinucleotides for coding the 20 amino acids (except the three stop codons {TAA,TAG,TGA}) and a circular code based on 20 trinucleotides for retrieving, maintaining and synchronizing the reading frame. It relies on two main results: the identification of a maximal C(3) sel...

Identification of circular codes in bacterial genomes and their use in a factorization method for retrieving the reading frames of genes

We developed a statistical method that allows each trinucleotide to be associated with a unique frame among the three possible ones in a (protein coding) gene. An extensive gene study in 175 complete bacterial genomes based on this statistical approach resulted in identification of 72 new circular codes. Finding a circular code enables an immediate retrieval of the reading frame locally anywher...

On Conjugation Partitions of Sets of Trinucleotides

We prove that a trinucleotide circular code is self-complementary if and only if its two conjugated classes are complement of each other. Using only this proposition, we prove that if a circular code is self-complementary then either both its two conjugated classes are circular codes or none is a circular code.
