  • Abstract
    We propose a protein communication system where the transmitted messages are protein sequences and the encoded message is the DNA. We study the evolutionary dynamics of this channel in both cases of constant and time-varying point mutation rate. We prove that the distribution of amino acids converges, at a geometric rate, to a limiting distribution.
