Codon usage bias [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology Reports, 2021
Codon usage bias is the preferential or non-random use of synonymous codons, a ubiquitous phenomenon observed in bacteria, plants and animals. Different species have consistent and characteristic codon biases. Codon bias varies not only with species, family or group within kingdom, but also between the genes within an organism.

The Codon Statistics Database: A Database of Codon Usage Bias

open access: yesMolecular Biology and Evolution, 2022
Abstract We present the Codon Statistics Database, an online database that contains codon usage statistics for all the species with reference or representative genomes in RefSeq (over 15,000). The user can search for any species and access two sets of tables.

Mechanism of Virus Attenuation by Codon Pair Deoptimization

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: Codon pair deoptimization is an efficient virus attenuation strategy, but the mechanism that leads to attenuation is unknown. The strategy involves synthetic recoding of viral genomes that alters the positions of synonymous codons, thereby ...

Synonymous but Not Silent: The Codon Usage Code for Gene Expression and Protein Folding

open access: yesAnnual Review of Biochemistry, 2021
Codon usage bias, the preference for certain synonymous codons, is found in all genomes. Although synonymous mutations were previously thought to be silent, a large body of evidence has demonstrated that codon usage can play major roles in determining ...

Codon optimality, bias and usage in translation and mRNA decay

open access: yesNature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2017
The advent of ribosome profiling and other tools to probe mRNA translation has revealed that codon bias — the uneven use of synonymous codons in the transcriptome — serves as a secondary genetic code: a code that guides the efficiency of protein ...

Codon and Codon-Pair Usage Tables (CoCoPUTs): Facilitating Genetic Variation Analyses and Recombinant Gene Design

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 2019
Usage of sequential codon-pairs is non-random and unique to each species. Codon-pair bias is related to but clearly distinct from individual codon usage bias.

Optimization of Col H Gene Encoding Clostridium histolyticum Collagenase to Express in Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Health Sciences and Surveillance System, 2022
Background: A given amino acid sequence can be encoded by a huge number of different nucleic acid sequences. These sequences, however, have proved not to be equally useful.

Overview of tRNA Modifications in Chloroplasts

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
The chloroplast is a promising platform for biotechnological innovation due to its compact translation machinery. Nucleotide modifications within a minimal set of tRNAs modulate codon–anticodon interactions that are crucial for translation efficiency ...

METTL1/WDR4 mediated m7G tRNA modifications and m7G codon usage promote mRNA translation and lung cancer progression.

open access: yesMolecular Therapy, 2021
Mis-regulated epigenetic modifications in RNAs are associated with human cancers. The transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are the most heavily modified RNA species in cells, however, little is known about the functions of tRNA modifications in cancers.
