Analysis of codon usage and nucleotide composition bias in polioviruses [PDF]
, 2011 Background Poliovirus, the causative agent of poliomyelitis, is a human enterovirus and a member of the family of Picornaviridae and among the most rapidly evolving viruses known.

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020 Gossypium hirsutum and G. barbadense mitochondrial genomes were analyzed to understand the factors shaping codon usage. While most analyses of codon usage suggest minimal to no bias, nucleotide composition, specifically GC content, was significantly ...

Solving the riddle of codon usage preferences: a test for translational selection [PDF]
, 1998 Translational selection is responsible for the unequal usage of synonymous codons in protein coding genes in a wide variety of organisms. It is one of the most subtle and pervasive forces of molecular evolution, yet, establishing the underlying causes ...

Differences in codon bias cannot explain differences in translational power among microbes
BMC Bioinformatics, 2005 Background Translational power is the cellular rate of protein synthesis normalized to the biomass invested in translational machinery. Published data suggest a previously unrecognized pattern: translational power is higher among rapidly growing microbes,

Evolutionary pressures on the yeast transcriptome [PDF]
, 2015 Codon usage bias (CUB) is the well known phenomenon that the frequency of synonymous codons is unequal. This is presumably the result of adaptive pressures favouring some codons over others.

A Codon-Pair Bias Associated With Network Interactions in Influenza A, B, and C Genomes
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 A new codon-pair bias present in the genomes of different types of influenza virus is described. Codons with fewer network interactions are more frequency paired together than other codon-pairs in influenza A, B, and C genomes.

Species based synonymous codon usage in fusion protein gene of Newcastle disease virus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Newcastle disease is highly pathogenic to poultry and many other avian species. However, the Newcastle disease virus (NDV) has also been reported from many non-avian species.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

PLIT: An alignment-free computational tool for identification of long non-coding RNAs in plant transcriptomic datasets [PDF]
, 2019 Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs which play a significant role in several biological processes. RNA-seq based transcriptome sequencing has been extensively used for identification of lncRNAs.

Codon Bias Signatures, Organization of Microorganisms in Codon Space, and Lifestyle [PDF]
Molecular Biology and Evolution, 2004 New and simple numerical criteria based on a codon adaptation index are applied to the complete genomic sequences of 80 Eubacteria and 16 Archaea, to infer weak and strong genome tendencies toward content bias, translational bias, and strand bias. These criteria can be applied to all microbial genomes, even those for which little biological information
