Enterovirus A Shows Unique Patterns of Codon Usage Bias in Conventional Versus Unconventional Clade
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 Enterovirus A (EV-A) species cause hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD), threatening the health of young children. Understanding the mutual codon usage pattern of the virus and its host(s) has fundamental and applied values.

Codon Usage Bias in Phytoplankton [PDF]
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 Non-random usage of synonymous codons, known as “codon bias”, has been described in many organisms, from bacteria to Drosophila, but little is known about it in phytoplankton. This phenomenon is thought to be driven by selection for translational efficiency.

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.

Heliyon, 2020 The codon usage pattern is a specific characteristic of each species; however, the codon usage of all of the genes in a genome is not uniform. Intriguingly, most viruses have codon usage patterns that are vastly different from the optimal codon usage of ...

Comparative analysis of codon usage patterns of FUT2 from different species
Kuwait Journal of Science, 2022 Enterotoxigenic E. coli is an important zoonotic pathogen causing diarrhea in human and newborn animals. α - (1,2) fucosyltransferase 2 (FUT2) is closely associated with the formation of pathogenic receptors of Enterotoxigenic E. coli.

Codon Bias Patterns of $E.coli$'s Interacting Proteins [PDF]
, 2015 Synonymous codons, i.e., DNA nucleotide triplets coding for the same amino acid, are used differently across the variety of living organisms. The biological meaning of this phenomenon, known as codon usage bias, is still controversial.

Modal Codon Usage: Assessing the Typical Codon Usage of a Genome [PDF]
Molecular Biology and Evolution, 2009 Most genomes are heterogeneous in codon usage, so a codon usage study should start by defining the codon usage that is typical to the genome. Although this is commonly taken to be the genomewide average, we propose that the mode-the codon usage that matches the most genes-provides a more useful approximation of the typical codon usage of a genome.

COUSIN (COdon Usage Similarity INdex): A normalized measure of Codon Usage Preferences [PDF]
Genome Biology and Evolution, 2019 AbstractCodon Usage Preferences (CUPrefs) describe the unequal usage of synonymous codons at the gene, genomic region or genome scale. Numerous indices have been developed to measure the CUPrefs of a sequence. We introduce a normalized index to calculate CUPrefs called COUSIN for COdon Usage Similarity INdex.

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.
