Evidence from glycine transfer RNA of a frozen accident at the dawn of the genetic code
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Transfer RNA (tRNA) is the means by which the cell translates DNA sequence into protein according to the rules of the genetic code. A credible proposition is that tRNA was formed from the duplication of an RNA hairpin half the length...
