Figure 9

Box plots of the distribution of ATP yield as a function of the number and composition of amino acids included on the code. Distributions generated by bootstrapping the anticodon assignations 104 times under different compositions of n of the Miller amino acids, M(n), where n = 2, 4,6,8,10 (see legend on top). A = alanine, G = glycine, D = aspartic acid, V = valine, L = leucine, Q = glutamic acid, S = serine, I = isoleucine, P = proline, and T = threonine.
