Notes:
The generalized genetic code is applied to alternative codings recently derived from studies of mitochondrial protein synthesis. It is argued that mitochondrial protein synthesis is comprised of a class of biological contexts, rather than a single biological context, and that there exist, therefore, multiple mitochondrial genetic codes. The evolutionary implications of multiple mitochondrial genetic codes are discussed.
