Amino Acids which are the same but translate differently in The I Ching



We have here the I Ching - The Word - based on 28143976 showing the positions and other information regarding amino acids. We can see that more than one of each is presented for example,  1/7 and 1/6 both create the amino acid Cysteine. Now I have been saying for some time that its all well and good saying they both create cysteine but it is clear to me they have different qualities and potentially functions. Maybe one version being created would need TGC and another TGT…….both would create cysteine in different ways.

Nine Star Ki 1/7 - DNA Codon TGC - facing South West - Hydrophobic - Cysteine - Hexagram 47 - 1/1-9/9 crystal - Fire Quadrant - Musical notes C F# B - planets Mercury Venus - aspect shape Ruminator 180 x 150 x 30.

Nine Star Ki 1/6 - DNA Codon TGT - faces North - Hydrophobic - Cysteine - Hexagram 6 - 8/4 7/3 crystal - Musical notes C F# G# - Planets Mercury Venus - Aspect shape Alternator 180 x 60 x 120. 

So what do they both have in common - hydrophobic - Cysteine - two musical notes C and F# - Planets Mercury and Venus - first two letters of the DNA Codon TG - each of them start their nine star ki with number 1 water - both are in the fire section of the I Ching.

I have always thought they must have differences if something is the same amino acid then everything about it should be the same and it isn’t and I read this article this morning that says . . . .

Human DNA sequences are built from four nucleotides (TGAC) making three letter codons….each codon tells the cell which amino acid to use when building a protein. Since several codons can create the same amino acid they were thought to be interchangeable. That view has changed scientists now know that some of these synonymous codons help RNA remain stable and get translated efficiently whilst others do not. So two genetic sequences can encode for the same protein but still behave differently inside a cell. 

Now to me one look at this amino acid chart and it tells you that’s obvious…… 1/7 is not 1/6 and GGA is not GGG and C F# B is not C F#G# and so on……….so glad to hear they have realised that but unless all markers are the same they can have great similarities culminating in producing the same amino acid but it does not mean one amino acid e.g. TGC is not better used with situation A whereas amino acid TGT could well be better served in situation B. Variations on a theme always tells you so much more. 

So great news to realise I have been on the right track for so much longer. Enjoy your thinking. X
