nucleophilic amino group and electrophilic ester carbonyl group. Reasoning that intrinsic codon:anticodonbinding might have been a major contributor to bringing tRNA 3′-termini into proximity at an early stage of ribosomal peptide synthesis, we wondered if primordial aminoacids might have been assigned to those codons that bind the corresponding anticodon loops most tightly. By measuring the binding of anticodon
