Abstract

Mathematical equations are now found not only in the books, but also they help in finding solutions for the biological problems by explaining the technicality of the current biological models and providing predictions that can be validated and complemented to experimental and clinical studies. In this research paper, we use the mset theory to study DNA & RNA mutations to discover the mutation occurrence. Also, we use the link between the concept of the mset and topology to determine the compatibility or similarity between “types”, which may be the strings of bits, vectors, DNA or RNA sequences, etc.
