Codon usage of host-specific P genotypes (VP4) in group A rotavirus
BMC Genomics, 2022 Background Group A rotavirus (RVA) is a common causative agent of acute gastroenteritis in infants and young children worldwide. RVA P genotypes, determined by VP4 sequences, have been confirmed to infect humans and animals.

Symmetry and Minimum Principle at the Basis of the Genetic Code
, 2017 The importance of the notion of symmetry in physics is well established: could it also be the case for the genetic code? In this spirit, a model for the Genetic Code based on continuous symmetries and entitled the "Crystal Basis Model" has been proposed ...

Differential Functional Constraints Cause Strain-Level Endemism in Polynucleobacter Populations. [PDF]
, 2016 The adaptation of bacterial lineages to local environmental conditions creates the potential for broader genotypic diversity within a species, which can enable a species to dominate across ecological gradients because of niche flexibility.

Adaptive evolution is substantially impeded by Hill–Robertson interference in Drosophila [PDF]
, 2015 Hill–Robertson interference (HRi) is expected to reduce the efficiency of natural selection when two or more linked selected sites do not segregate freely, but no attempt has been done so far to quantify the overall impact of HRi on the rate of adaptive ...

Comparative Genomics of Trypanosomatid Pathogens using Codon Usage Bias [PDF]
Bioinformation, 2013 It is well known that an amino acid can be encoded by more than one codon, called synonymous codons. The preferential use of one particular codon for coding an amino acid is referred to as codon usage bias (CUB). A quantitative analytical method, CUB and a related tool, Codon Adaptative Index have been applied to comparatively study whole genomes of a ...

Codon Usage Bias and Mutation Constraints Reduce the Level of ErrorMinimization of the Genetic Code [PDF]
, 2018 Studies on the origin of the genetic code compare measures of the degree of error minimization of the standard code with measures produced by random variant codes but do not take into account codon usage, which was probably highly biased during the ...

Variation and selection on codon usage bias across an entire subphylum.
PLoS Genetics, 2019 Variation in synonymous codon usage is abundant across multiple levels of organization: between codons of an amino acid, between genes in a genome, and between genomes of different species.

Why genes evolve faster on secondary chromosomes in bacteria [PDF]
, 2010 In bacterial genomes composed of more than one chromosome, one replicon is typically larger, harbors more essential genes than the others, and is considered primary.
