Communicated by S. Spiegelman, January 17, 1966 The central problem ofthe genetic code is to identify the factors giving rise to the observed codon assignments. In particular, the key issueis whether or not amino acid-oligonucleotide steric interactions play or have played a role in de-termining these assignments, and if so, to what extent.'Although in the beginning there were no pertinent facts bearing on this matter, there initially was certainly no dearth of theoretical speculation. Gamowand others assumed amino acidnucleic acid steric interactions to be the sole factors determining codon assignments. 2
