Yamanuchi Code

Protein Language Sounds (The Yamanuchi Code)

Below is the correspondence of each amino acid to a particular sound in the protein language. This is the translation sequence used to transcribe a protein. Using the “find and replace” facility in a word document the letters of the amino acid sequence are translated into sounds in the following order.

G   Ja

D   Ga

E   Go

R   Da

P   Ra

S   Si

H   Shi

C   Zi

I   Chee

F   Fa

Y   Yo

W   Wi

L   La

Q   Qua

M   Me

T   To

N   Nut

K   Ki

V   Va

A   Ba

This brings the protein sequences back to life ! You can actually hear what the proteins are saying when you listen to these sequences using the “speak text” facility ina word document.
