Unusual codon usage bias in low expression genes of Vibrio cholerae
Positive correlation between gene expression and synonymous codon usage bias is well documented in the literature. However, in the present study of Vibrio cholerae genome, we have identified a group of genes having unusually high codon usage bias despite being low potential expressivity. Our results suggest that codon usage in lowly expressed genes might also be selected on to preferably use no...
متن کاملThe effect of context on synonymous codon usage in genes with low codon usage bias.
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. A similar pattern is found in complementary sequences with respect to synonymous usage of A vs G or of U vs ...

متن کاملMore Codon Usage Bias
χ measure. In statistics, the χ statstic computes how different the distribution of values is from a uniform distribution. Let d = c1 . . . cN be a DNA string in nucleotide alphabet, and let L be the total number of codons in d that are not Methinine or Tryptophan (the number does include the stop codons though). Let a be a k-degenerate amino acid, and let La be the total number of codons codin...
متن کاملIdentification of Synonymous Codon Usage Bias in the Pseudorabies Virus UL31 Gene
Background: Little knowledge of synonymous codon usage pattern of pseudorabies virus (PRV) genome, especially the UL31 gene in the process for its evolution is available. Objectives: In the present study, the codon usage bias between PRV UL31 sequence and the UL31-like sequences was identified. Materials and Methods: We used a comprehensive analysi...
