Vindhya Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 (edited) I was surprised to know that it's not a biologist but an astronomer - George Gamow - in 1954 proposed the three letter word to pick aminoacids during protein synthesis. I am curious to know what might be the logic behind this proposal which was proved to be right later. I am a high school student. Please enlighten me.

I am curious to know what might be the logic behind this proposal which was proved to be right later? I am looking for a mathematical answer. I am a high school student. Please enlighten me.

iNow Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 Probably a lack of familiarity with how the forum functions, John. No need for harshness. Just merge the threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
