Sum rules for codon usage probabilities

Description

In the crystal basis model of the genetic code, it is deduced that the sum of usage probabilities of the codons with C and A in the third position for the quartets and/or sextets is independent of the biological species for vertebrates. A comparison between the theoretical predictions and the experimental data shows a satisfactory agreement
