Evolution of the mitochondrial genetic code. IV. AAA as an asparagine codon in some animal mitochondria
T Ohama et al. J Mol Evol. 1990 Apr.
Abstract
Differences in assignments from those in the universal genetic code occur in codes of mitochondria. In this report, the published sequences of the mitochondrial genes for COI and ND1 in a platyhelminth (Fasciola hepatica) are examined and it is concluded that AAA may be a codon for asparagine instead of lysine, whereas AAG is the sole codon for lysine in this species.
