Codon usage and codon context bias in Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous [PDF]
Synonymous codons are used differentially in organisms from the three domains of life, a phenomenon referred to as codon usage bias. In addition, codon pair bias, particularly in the 3' codon context, has also been described in several organisms and is associated with the accuracy and rate of translation. An improved understanding of both types of bias

Geographical distribution of Brucella melitensis inferred from rpoB gene variation
Introduction: Currently available tests have limitations for the identification of Brucella species and strains, and their genetic lineage. The genome sequence of the rpoB gene encoding the β-subunit of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase was investigated for ...

Prevalent use and evolution of exonic regulatory sequences in the human genome
It has long been known that exons can serve as cis‐regulatory sequences, such as enhancers. However, the prevalence of such dual‐use of exons and how they evolve remain elusive.

Candidate essential genes in Burkholderia cenocepacia J2315 identified by genome-wide TraDIS
Burkholderia cenocepacia infection often leads to fatal cepacia syndrome in cystic fibrosis patients. However, antibiotic therapy rarely results in complete eradication of the pathogen due to its intrinsic resistance to many clinically available ...

Analysis of p53 codon 72 polymorphism and HPV 5,8 E6 oncoprotein expression in Basal cell carcinoma in Basrah [PDF]
Background: Two polymorphic forms of the p53 gene that codes either for Arginine or proline at codon 72 were identified, However, this individual might have one of the three genotypes: Arginine/Arginine, Proline/Proline or Arginine /Proline.

Intracellular management of information: from DNA to proteins
The living features of cells constitute an information flow from a central database, the nuclear DNA, to molecular effectors, proteins, which are synthesised in the cytoplasm.

Characterization of the mIF4G Domains in the RNA Surveillance Protein Upf2p
Thirty percent of all mutations causing human disease generate mRNAs with premature termination codons (PTCs). Recognition and degradation of these PTC-containing mRNAs is carried out by the mechanism known as nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).

Effects of Arbovirus Multi-Host Life Cycles on Dinucleotide and Codon Usage Patterns
Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) of vertebrates including dengue, zika, chikungunya, Rift Valley fever, and blue tongue viruses cause extensive morbidity and mortality in humans, agricultural animals, and wildlife across the globe.

Codon optimality in cancer [PDF]
AbstractA key characteristic of cancer cells is their increased proliferative capacity, which requires elevated levels of protein synthesis. The process of protein synthesis involves the translation of codons within the mRNA coding sequence into a string of amino acids to form a polypeptide chain. As most amino acids are encoded by multiple codons, the
