The two dimensional cellular automata (CA) picture is an alternative method to depict the nucleotide and amino acid sequences.
Here we showed that the two dimensional CA pictures can vividly delineate the nucleotide sequences (base sequence) of the
gene and the genomes of SARS-CoV-2, the pathogenic agent of the COVID-19 pandemic. If the genetic codon rules are strictly
followed, the CA pictures can also depict the genetic codons and indirectly express the amino acid sequences of the proteins
of SARS-CoV-2. CA pictures can reveal the overall and detailed differences between nucleotide or amino acid sequences and
they are very sensitive to the sequence details, such as the cleavage recognition site of the host protease like TMPRSS2, and the
receptor binding domain (RBD) of the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2, which are sensitive to even changes in only one amino
acid or.. View more»
