The Mystery of Two Straight Lines in Bacterial Genome Statistics. Release 2007
, 2007 In special coordinates (codon position--specific nucleotide frequencies) bacterial genomes form two straight lines in 9-dimensional space: one line for eubacterial genomes, another for archaeal genomes. All the 348 distinct bacterial genomes available in

A Comparative Analysis of Synonymous Codon Usage Bias Pattern in Human Albumin Superfamily
The Scientific World Journal, 2014 Synonymous codon usage bias is an inevitable phenomenon in organismic taxa across the three domains of life. Though the frequency of codon usage is not equal across species and within genome in the same species, the phenomenon is non random and is tissue-

Analysis of codon usage pattern in Taenia saginata based on a transcriptome dataset
Parasites & Vectors, 2014 Background Codon usage bias is an important evolutionary feature in a genome and has been widely documented in many genomes. Analysis of codon usage bias has significance for mRNA translation, design of transgenes, new gene discovery, and studies of ...

Genome-wide analysis of codon usage bias in Ebolavirus
Virus Research, 2015 Ebola virus (EBOV) is a member of the family Filoviridae and its genome consists of a 19-kb, single-stranded, negative sense RNA. EBOV is subdivided into five distinct species with different pathogenicities, being Zaire ebolavirus (ZEBOV) the most lethal species.

Comparative Study on Codon Usage Patterns across Chloroplast Genomes of Eighteen Taraxacum Species
HorticulturaeThis study investigates codon usage bias within the chloroplast genomes of 18 Taraxacum species, focusing on the base composition and various metrics including GC content, Relative Synonymous Codon Usage (RSCU), Effective Number of Codons (ENc), and GC3s.

The effect of context on synonymous codon usage in genes with low codon usage bias
Nucleic Acids Research, 1990 The effect of neighbouring bases on the usage of synonymous codons in genes with low codon usage bias in yeast and E. coli is examined. The codon adaptation index is employed to identify a group of genes in each organism with low codon usage bias, which are likely to be weakly expressed.

Codon Usage Bias Measured Through Entropy Approach
, 2007 Codon usage bias measure is defined through the mutual entropy calculation of real codon frequency distribution against the quasi-equilibrium one. This latter is defined in three manners: (1) the frequency of synonymous codons is supposed to be equal (i.e., the arithmetic mean of their frequencies); (2) it coincides to the frequency distribution of ...

Systems biology of energetic and atomic costs in the yeast transcriptome, proteome, and metabolome [PDF]
, 2008 Proteins vary in their cost to the cell and natural selection may favour the use of proteins that are cheaper to produce. We develop a novel approach to estimate the amino acid biosynthetic cost based on genome-scale metabolic models, and directly ...
