In this work, we study the DNA codes from the ring R = Z4 + wZ4, where w^2 = 2+2w with 16 elements. We establish a one to one correspondence between the elements of the ring R and all the DNA codewords of length 2 by defining a…

Let $C$ be a binary code of length $n$ with distances $0<d_1<\cdots<d_s\le n$. In this note we prove a general upper bound on the size of $C$ without any restriction on the distances $d_i$. The bound is asymptotically optimal.
In this paper, we develop the theory for constructing DNA cyclic codes of odd length over $R=\Z_4[u]/\langle u^2-1 \rangle$ based on the deletion distance. Firstly, we relate DNA pairs with a special 16 elements of ring $R$. Cyclic codes of…
