@AleMartnezR1 @fscinico @ZubiDuvi @stablecross @philipmuller Here's a paper that discusses the optimality of the standard genetic code and provides an example of a code that is much more robust to point mutations. https://t.co/z2Q4wAvxxp
@johnmaddox @Atheist_Geek48 @sygarte Probably. There’s nothing in DNA anywhere near that good. It’s robustness to single point mutations completely changing the code meaning isn’t great and only about 80% optimal. https://t.co/z2Q4wAvxxp
@RTB_FRana @Lead1225 This shuts down the argument that the emergence of the SGC and its optimization are highly improbable events, or that these events can't be explained by natural selection. There is a lot I could go into here, but this might be a good p
