Decoding the codon usage patterns in Y-domain region of hepatitis E viruses

Journal of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Background Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is a positive-sense RNA virus belonging to the family Hepeviridae. The genome of HEV is organized into three open-reading frames (ORFs): ORF1, ORF2, and ORF3.

Patterns and influencing factor of synonymous codon usage in porcine circovirus

Virology Journal, 2012
Background Analysis of codon usage can reveal much about the molecular evolution of the viruses. Nevertheless, little information about synonymous codon usage pattern of porcine circovirus (PCV) genome in the process of its evolution is available.

Comparative analysis of codon usage between Gossypium hirsutum and G. barbadense mitochondrial genomes

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 ...

A code within the genetic code: codon usage regulates co-translational protein folding

Cell Communication and Signaling, 2020
The genetic code is degenerate, and most amino acids are encoded by two to six synonymous codons. Codon usage bias, the preference for certain synonymous codons, is a universal feature of all genomes examined.

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

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

The effect of multiple evolutionary selections on synonymous codon usage of genes in the Mycoplasma bovis genome. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Mycoplasma bovis is a major pathogen causing arthritis, respiratory disease and mastitis in cattle. A better understanding of its genetic features and evolution might represent evidences of surviving host environments.

Analysis of synonymous codon usage in Hepatitis A virus

Virology Journal, 2011
Background Hepatitis A virus is the causative agent of type A viral hepatitis, which causes occasional acute hepatitis. Nevertheless, little information about synonymous codon usage pattern of HAV genome in the process of its evolution is available.

Pangenome evidence for higher codon usage bias and stronger translational selection in core genes of Escherichia coli

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Codon usage bias, as a combined interplay from mutation and selection, has been intensively studied in Escherichia coli. However, codon usage analysis in an E. coli pangenome remains unexplored and the relative importance of mutation and selection acting
