Discusses the structure of DNA and RNA and the mechanisms of transcription and translation in relation to the grammatical rules of language. The ultimate purpose is to design a grammar which can be used to write flexible, adaptive computer programs for searching nucleotide sequences, with the goal of being able to search large sequences for gene-coding regions. 11 refs., 16 figs.
