Scientific paper

An extensive analysis of the evolutionary relationships existing between transfer RNAs, performed using parsimony algorithms, is presented. After building up an estimate of the tRNA ancestral sequences, these sequences are then compared using certain methods. The results seem to suggest that the coevolution hypothesis (Wong, J.T., 1975, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 72, 1909 1912) that sees the genetic code as a map of the biosynthetic relationships between amino acids is further supported by these results, as compared to the hypotheses that see the physicochemical properties of amino acids as the main adaptative theme that led to the structuring of the genetic code.
