He then asked news organizations to tally up the number of Americans killed through terrorist attacks in the last decade and compare it with the number of Americans who have died in gun violence.
In molecular biology, a reading frame is a way of dividing the sequence of nucleotides in a nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) molecule into a set of consecutive, non-overlapping triplets. Where these triplets equate to amino acids or stop signals during translation, they are called codons.
Because of the 'comma-less' nature of the genetic code, only the position of the initiation codon determines the reading frame, and faulty initiation might result in complete distortion of the message as a result of a shift in the reading frame. Precise initiation is therefore the key to accurate translation.
