In Arabidopsis thaliana codon volatility scores reflect GC3 composition rather than selective pressure [PDF]

BMC Research Notes, 2012
Background Synonymous codon usage bias has typically been correlated with, and attributed to translational efficiency. However, there are other pressures on genomic sequence composition that can affect codon usage patterns such as mutational biases. This

CBDB: The codon bias database [PDF]

BMC Bioinformatics, 2012
Background In many genomes, a clear preference in the usage of particular codons exists. The mechanisms that induce codon biases remain an open question; studies have attributed codon usage to translational selection, mutational bias and drift ...

Sum rules of codon usage probabilities [PDF]

Physics Letters A, 2002
In the crystal basis model of the genetic code, it is deduced that the sum of usage probabilities of the codons with C and A in the third position for the quartets and/or sextets is independent of the biological species for vertebrates. A comparison with

SARS-CoV-2 Codon Usage Bias Downregulates Host Expressed Genes With Similar Codon Usage [PDF]

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Severe acute respiratory syndrome has spread quickly throughout the world and was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). The pathogenic agent is a new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) that infects pulmonary cells with great effectiveness. In

Codon usage of human DNA viruses and its similarity to certain host genes [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Codon usages of DNA viruses had previously been shown to associate with their genome size. Codon usage of various human DNA viruses was compared to those of human genes to further understand viral codon usage and its roles in viral-host interaction ...

Nuclear effects play an important role in determining codon usage-dependent human gene expression [PDF]

Nature Communications
Codon usage biases play a significant role in determining gene expression levels. Codon usage was thought to primarily influence translation-dependent processes.

Codon usage bias [PDF]

Molecular 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.

Strategies and Patterns of Codon Bias in Molluscum Contagiosum Virus

Pathogens, 2021
Trends associated with codon usage in molluscum contagiosum virus (MCV) and factors governing the evolution of codon usage have not been investigated so far.
