Table 2.
Mutated amino acids and their translation probabilities with regard to the changes in four RNA codons ACU, ACC, ACA, and ACG
| RNA codon | ACU | ACC | ACA | ACG |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Original amino acid | Threonine | Threonine | Threonine | Threonine |
| Mutated amino acids | ||||
| Changes in the first position in RNA codon | Serine | Serine | Serine | Serine |
| Proline | Proline | Proline | Proline | |
| Alanine | Alanine | Alanine | Alanine | |
| Changes in the second position in RNA codon | Isoleucine | Isoleucine | Isoleucine | Methionine |
| Asparagine | Asparagine | Lysine | Lysine | |
| Serine | Serine | Arginine | Arginine | |
| Changes in the third position in RNA codon | Threonine | Threonine | Threonine | Threonine |
| Threonine | Threonine | Threonine | Threonine | |
| Threonine | Threonine | Threonine | Threonine | |
| Total I | 4 alanines + 2 arginines + 2 asparagines + 3 isoleucines + 2 lysines + methionine + 4 prolines + 6 serines + 12 threonines | |||
| Translation probability I | 4/36 + 2/36 + 2/36 + 3/36 + 2/36 + 1/36 + 4/36 + 6/36 + 12/36 | |||
| Total II | 4 alanines + 2 arginines + 2 asparagines + 3 isoleucines + 2 lysines + methionine + 4 prolines + 6 serines | |||
| Translation probability II | 4/24 + 2/24 + 2/24 + 3/24 + 2/24 + 1/24 + 4/24 + 6/24 | |||
I and II indicate the inclusion and exclusion, respectively, of the same type of amino acids before and after mutation, i.e., the mutated amino acid is threonine.
