The main theories which have been suggested to explain the origin of genetic code organization are discussed. The coevolution theory, which considers the genetic code as a map of the biosynthetic relationships between amino acids, seems to be based on a mechanism that links it closely to certain sta
Two ideas have essentially been used to explain the origin of the genetic code: Crick's frozen accident and Woese's amino acid-codon specific chemical interaction. Whatever the origin and codon-amino acid correlation, it is difficult to imagine the sudden appearance of the genetic code in its presen
