Codon usage bias in radioresistant bacteria [PDF]
Gene, 2020 Abstract The relationship between patterns of codon usage bias (CUB), the preferential usage of synonimous nucleotide triplets encoding the same amino acid, and radioresistance was investigated int he genomes of 16 taxonomically distinct radioresistant prokaryotic organisms and in a control set of 11 non-radioresistant bacteria.

Codon adaptation index as a measure of dominating codon bias [PDF]
Bioinformatics, 2003 Abstract We propose a simple algorithm to detect dominating synonymous codon usage bias in genomes. The algorithm is based on a precise mathematical formulation of the problem that lead us to use the Codon Adaptation Index (CAI) as a ‘universal’ measure of codon bias.

Evolution of Codon Usage Bias in Diatoms [PDF]
Genes, 2019 Codon usage bias (CUB)—preferential use of one of the synonymous codons, has been described in a wide range of organisms from bacteria to mammals, but it has not yet been studied in marine phytoplankton. CUB is thought to be caused by weak selection for translational accuracy and efficiency.

Clustering of classical swine fever virus isolates by codon pair bias
BMC Research Notes, 2011 Background The genetic code consists of non-random usage of synonymous codons for the same amino acids, termed codon bias or codon usage. Codon juxtaposition is also non-random, referred to as codon context bias or codon pair bias.

Distinct responses to rare codons in select Drosophila tissues
eLife, 2022 Codon usage bias has long been appreciated to influence protein production. Yet, relatively few studies have analyzed the impacts of codon usage on tissue-specific mRNA and protein expression.

Codon Usage of Hepatitis E Viruses: A Comprehensive Analysis
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is an emerging zoonotic pathogen with multiple species and genotypes, which may be classified into human, animal, and zoonotic HEV. Codon usage bias of HEV remained unclear.

Codon Bias and Mutability in HIV Sequences [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Evolution, 1999 A survey of the patterns of synonymous codon preference in the HIV env gene reveals a correlation between the codon bias and the mutability requirements of different regions of the protein. At hypervariable regions in gp120 one finds a greater proportion of codons that tend to mutate nonsynonymously, but to a target that is similar in hydrophobicity ...

Codon Usage Bias Correlates With Gene Length in Neurodegeneration Associated Genes
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022 Codon usage analysis is a crucial part of molecular characterization and is used to determine the factors affecting the evolution of a gene. The length of a gene is an important parameter that affects the characteristics of the gene, such as codon usage,
