Complex Codon Usage Pattern and Compositional Features of Retroviruses
Retroviruses infect a wide range of organisms including humans. Among them, HIV-1, which causes AIDS, has now become a major threat for world health. Some of these viruses are also potential gene transfer vectors. In this study, the patterns of synonymous codon usage in retroviruses have been studied through multivariate statistical methods on ORFs sequences from the available 56 retroviruses. ...
متن کاملOverall codon usage pattern of enterovirus 71.
Hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) is a systemic illness in children and is usually caused by enterovirus 71 (EV71). To provide new insights into the genetic features of EV71 and the relationship between the overall codon usage pattern of this virus and that of humans, values for relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU), effective number of codons (ENC), codon adaptation index (CAI), and nucleo...
متن کاملCompositional correlation and codon usage studies in Buchnera aphidicola.
Compositional distributions in three different codon positions as well as codon usage biases of all available DNA sequences of Buchnera aphidicola genome have been analyzed. It was observed that GC levels among the three codon positions is I>II>III as observed in other extremely high AT rich organisms. B. aphidicola being an AT rich organism is expected to have A and/or T at the third positions...
متن کاملCodon usage pattern in human SPANX genes
BACKGROUND SPANX (sperm protein coupled with the nucleus in the X chromosome) genes play a crucial role in human spermatogenesis. Codon usage bias (CUB) is a well-known phenomenon that exists in many genomes and mainly determined by mutation and selection. CUB is species specific and a unique characteristic of a genome. Analysis of compositional features and codon usage pattern of SPANX genes i...
متن کاملCodon usage pattern of differentially expressed genes in Leishmania species
Out of numerous genes, differentially expressed genes of Leishmania major (299) and L. infantum (241), essential for their survival, have been studied for the analysis of synonymous codon usage patterns. The role of translational selection and mutational biases were analyzed through ENc plot and correspondence analysis. Present analysis indicates that mutational pressure has a profound effect o...
