Intraspecific and interspecific variations in the synonymous codon usage in mitochondrial genomes of 8 pleurotus strains

BMC Genomics
In this study, we investigated the codon bias of twelve mitochondrial core protein coding genes (PCGs) in eight Pleurotus strains, two of which are from the same species.

Relative Codon Adaptation Index, a Sensitive Measure of Codon Usage Bias

Evolutionary Bioinformatics, 2010
We propose a simple, sensitive measure of synonymous codon usage bias, the Relative Codon Adaptation Index (rCAI), as a way to discriminate better between highly biased and unbiased regions, compared with the widely used Codon Adaptation Index (CAI). CAI is a geometric mean of the relative usage of codons in a gene, and is calculated using the codon ...

Novel MYL1 Intron Variant With Expanded Phenotype

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Congenital myopathy‐14 (CMYO14) is an ultrarare autosomal recessive disorder caused by biallelic variants in MYL1, with only four patients reported to date. We describe what is likely the fifth reported patient, a neonate with severe hypotonia, respiratory insufficiency, and skeletal anomalies showing distinct histological changes of skeletal ...

Control of ribosome traffic by position-dependent choice of synonymous codons

, 2013
Messenger RNA encodes a sequence of amino acids by using codons. For most amino acids there are multiple synonymous codons that can encode the amino acid.

Base Composition and Translational Selection are Insufficient to Explain Codon Usage Bias in Plant Viruses

Viruses, 2013
Viral codon usage bias may be the product of a number of synergistic or antagonistic factors, including genomic nucleotide composition, translational selection, genomic architecture, and mutational or repair biases.

Why genes evolve faster on secondary chromosomes in bacteria [PDF]

, 2010
In bacterial genomes composed of more than one chromosome, one replicon is typically larger, harbors more essential genes than the others, and is considered primary.

ANK1 and EPB41 Variants and The Risk of Steroid‐Induced Osteonecrosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Steroid‐induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH) is a refractory skeletal disorder influenced by genetic and environmental factors. However, conclusive pathogenic genetic evidence remains elusive due to the limited exploration of rare damaging variants. In this study, we aimed to identify rare variants associated with SONFH.

Compositional Constraint Is the Key Force in Shaping Codon Usage Bias in Hemagglutinin Gene in H1N1 Subtype of Influenza A Virus

International Journal of Genomics, 2014
It is vital to unravel the codon usage bias in order to gain insights into the evolutionary forces dictating the viral evolution process. Influenza A virus has attracted attention of many investigators over the years due to high mutation rate and being ...

The evolving therapeutic landscape of spinal muscular atrophy – A scoping review of investigational agents, emerging delivery technologies and strategic innovations

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a severe neuromuscular disease with emerging therapeutic complexity. This review aims to systematically map the global pipeline of investigational treatments for SMA. Using ClinicalTrials.gov and complementary international registries, we identified 21 planned or ongoing interventional trials from 2020 to 2025 targeting
