Bibliographic description in the original language

Zolyan S.T. Human genome as a (hyper)text: from metaphor to theory / Zolyan S.T., Zhdanov R.I. // Semiotica: J. the Int. Assoc. for Semiotic Studies (De Gruyter, Scopus; Int. J., Canada) - 2018. - № 225. - P. 1-18. DOI: 10.1515/sem-2016-0214

Annotation

The similarity between language and genetic information transmission processing has been recognized since molecular genetics was founded. Numerous attempts have been made to use linguistics techniques to decipher protein genes. The modest informational impact of various approaches to decoding the “protein language” was predictable: this type of technique is limited by the processes of encoding and at best helps compile a dictionary of units. However, this technique cannot describe a language and identify the semantic and textual structures that are decisive for communication. Thus, the functions of a large amount of non-coding DNA remain unclear. A text (but not a sign) should be regarded as an artefact of the creation, transmission, conservation and transformation of information. A general theory of text should be capable of describing linguistic texts and the process of their structuring, functioning and transformation.
