This NIH proposal provides an outline of Marshall Nirenberg and Heinrich Matthaei's findings from their earlier studies of cell-free E. coli, TMV, and messenger RNA. Future plans include the study of RNA coding units, which includes determining the coding ratio, the specificity, and universality of the code at NIH. Funds for professional development are also requested.
