For example, if there were two bases per codon, then only 16 amino acids could be coded for (4²=16). Because at least 21 codes are required (20 amino acids plus stop) and the next largest number of bases is three, then 4³ gives 64 possible codons, meaning that some degeneracy must exist.
For example, "AA" is assigned to blue, "AC" is assigned to green, and so on for all 16 unique pairs. During sequencing, each base in the template is sequenced twice, and the resulting data are decoded according to this scheme.
The classical table/wheel of the standard genetic code is arbitrarily organized based on codon position 1. Saier, [ 12 ] following observations from, [ 13 ] showed that reorganizing the wheel based instead on codon position 2 (and reordering from UCAG to UCGA) better arranges the codons by the hydrophobicity of their encoded amino acids.
Examples of degeneracy are found in the genetic code, when many different nucleotide sequences encode the same polypeptide; in protein folding, when different polypeptides fold to be structurally and functionally equivalent; in protein functions, when overlapping binding functions and similar catalytic specificities are observed; in metabolism, when multiple, parallel biosynthetic and ...

Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation is a heterogenous group of inherited neurodegenerative diseases, still under research, in which iron accumulates in the basal ganglia, either resulting in progressive dystonia, parkinsonism, spasticity, optic atrophy, retinal degeneration, neuropsychiatric, or diverse neurologic abnormalities.

Examples of FTLD-tau include; Pick's disease, corticobasal degeneration, progressive supranuclear palsy. FTLD-TDP (or FTLD-U ) is characterised by ubiquitin and TDP-43 positive, tau negative, FUS negative inclusion bodies. The pathological histology of this subtype is so diverse it is subdivided into four subtypes based on the detailed ...
Versions of SNOMED released prior to 2001 were based on a multiaxial, hierarchical classification system. [ 1 ] [ 4 ] As in any such system, a disease may be located in a body organ (anatomy) , which results in a code in a topography axis and may lead to morphological alterations represented by a morphology code.
