Space-filling molecular models have been used to examine structural analogies between amino acids and nucleic acids. The three-dimensional structures of amino acid R groups appear to be stereochemically related to cavities formed by removal of single bases in double helical nucleic acids. The common L amino acids may thus be complementary to their codons.
空间填充分子模型已被用于研究氨基酸和核酸之间的结构相似性。氨基酸R基团的三维结构在立体化学上似乎与双螺旋核酸中单个碱基去除后形成的空洞相关。因此，常见的L型氨基酸可能与其密码子互补。
