| Popis: | In this communication we compare the amount of independent and dependent infonnation of two different structures of virus genomes: that of MS2, able to display high secondary structure, and that of θX174, with scarce self-complementarity. The references for this comparison were the average value of informational indexes and the ability to generate secondary structure of the well known transfer tRNAs. The analysis of these parameters reveals the singular behaviour of each species, which obtains a high reliable genetic information by different molecular arrangements. |
