Codon Distributions in DNA
A. Som, S. Chattopadhyay, J. Chakrabarti, D. Bandyopadhyay
Abstract
The codons, sixtyfour in number, are distributed over the coding parts of DNA sequences. The distribution function is the plot of frequency-versus-rank of the codons. These distributions are characterised by parameters that are almost universal, i.e., gene independent. There is but a small part that depends on the gene. We present the theory to calculate the universal (gene-independent) part. The part that is gene-specific, however, has undetermined overlaps and fluctuations.
