MAGNITUDE OF THYMINE IN DIFFERENT FRAMES OF MESSENGER RNAs

Thymine is the one and only base transcribed into uracil during production of proteins. Thymine in DNA and uracil in mRNA plays a major role in producing proteins with appropriate carbon content for stability and activity. Thymine distribution is different frames of coding nucleic acids are investigated statistically. The results confirm that frame 1 supposed to have definite thymine content. Frame 3 prefers to have least thymine content. Frames 4 & 5 maintain some degree of thymine while 2 & 6 have a variable fraction of thymine
