ELI5, Why are the sequences different if they result in the same spike protein?
- shakow 6y agoI didn't check it was the only explanation, but the DNA -> protein encoding is surjective.
- rnestler 6y agoMaybe one could compare it to having different recipes for the same cake. Or different source code to solve the same problem.
- ssijak 6y agoDifferent codons can encode the same amino acids, so different sequences can encode the same protein.
