We derive theoretical upper and lower bounds on the maximum size of DNA codes
of length n with constant GC-content w and minimum Hamming distance d, both
with and without the additional constraint that the minimum Hamming distance
between any codeword and the reverse-complement of any codeword be at least d.
We also explicitly construct codes that are larger than the best
previously-published codes for many choices of the parameters n, d and w.Comment: 13 pages, no figures; a few references added and typos correcte
