Codon bias and heterologous protein expression
Trends in Biotechnology, 2004The expression of functional proteins in heterologous hosts is a cornerstone of modern biotechnology. Unfortunately, proteins are often difficult to express outside their original context. They might contain codons that are rarely used in the desired host, come from organisms that use non-canonical code or contain expression-limiting regulatory ...

Estimate Codon Usage Bias Using Codon Usage Analyzer (CUA)
2017One amino acid is added to a growing peptide by a ribosome through reading triple nucleotides, i.e., a codon, each time. Twenty species of amino acids are often coded by 61 codons, so one amino acid can be coded by more than one codon and the codons coding the same amino acid are called synonymous. Intriguingly, synonymous codons' usage is often uneven:

Codon usage bias in herpesvirus
Archives of Virology, 2010In this study, I present a comprehensive analysis of codon usage bias in 43 herpesviruses for which the whole genome has been sequenced. The values of the effective number of codons revealed that the majority of the herpesviruses did not have high codon bias, with the exceptions of only simplexviruses and some varicelloviruses.

PICDI, a simple program for codon bias calculation
Molecular Biotechnology, 1996PICDI is a very simple program designed to calculate the Intrinsic Codon Deviation Index (ICDI). The program is available in Macintosh as well a PC format. Requirements for correct input of the sequences have been kept to a minimum and the analysis of sequences up to 2000 codons is very quick.

Codon usage bias in metagenomes
2008Codon usage (CU) bias is an effect predominant in prokaryotes whereby synonymous codons are used with different frequencies between different species and even between genes within a single genome. This effect is related to tRNA abundance and can be used to predict expressivity of proteins by comparing their CU with that of a reference set of ...
