摘要

Twenty-five different single-factor criteria and hypotheses about chronological order of appearance of amino acids in the early evolution are summarized in consensus ranking. All available knowledge and thoughts about origin and evolution of the genetic code are thus combined in a single list where the amino acids are ranked in descending order, starting with the earliest ones:G,A,D,V,P,S,E,L,T,I,N,F,H,K,R,Q,C,M,Y,WOne may expect that in the composition of the ancient proteins the earliest amino acids would dominate. Indeed, when homologous prokaryotic and eukaryotic protein sequences are aligned, the most frequent residue amongst matching amino acids (presumably, what remains of the common ancestor sequence) is glycine that makes about 14% vs. glycine content of 6-7% in modern proteins. The glycine content of the matching residues may, then, serve as a measure of the time (glycine clock) since the separation of compared species. This approach is applied to 370 pairwise alignments of protein sequences from over 100 species of 6 major kingdoms. The evolutionary tree is derived, where the kingdoms separate consecutively from the central stem in the order: Eubacteria (13.5% G at the moment of separation), Archaea (11.5%), Protoctista (10.5%), Fungi (9%), Planta/Animalia (8%), largely consistent with common knowledge on the evolution of the kingdoms. The glycine content, thus, may serve as a time label that allows the tracing back of the separation of any two species with potential accuracy of the order of 50 to 100 million years, all the way to the very origin of species.
