Abstract

This article proposes a number of codon reassignment strategies. These strategies are inferred by comparing the alternative (non-standard) genetic codes to the standard genetic code. Codon reassignments show strong and non-random connection to the standard code. The strategies interconnect all genetic codes and model a selected pathway through the heterotrophic part of life. The article also shows that the codon reassignment strategies model the evolution from the standard to the vertebrate mitochondrial code. Furthermore, it introduces a genetic code table based on third position synonyms that compares the vertebrate mitochondrial code to the standard code.
