Alternative yeast nuclear code

However, other yeast, including Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Candida azyma, Candida diversa, Candida magnoliae, Candida rugopelliculosa, Yarrowia lipolytica, and Zygoascus hellenicus, definitely use the standard code.The code
Bases: adenine, cytosine, guanine and thymine or uracil.
Amino acids: Alanine, Arginine, Asparagine, Aspartic acid, Cysteine, Glutamic acid, Glutamine, Glycine, Histidine, Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine, Methionine, Phenylalanine, Proline, Serine, Threonine, Tryptophan, Tyrosine, Valine.- CAG may be used in Candida albicans.
- Endomycetales : Candida albicans, Candida cylindracea, Candida melibiosica, Candida parapsilosis, and Candida rugosa.
