Papillomaviruses use rare codons relative to their hosts. Recent studies have demonstrated that synonymous codon changes in viral genes can lead to increased protein production when the codons are matched to those of cells in which the protein is being expressed. We theorized that the immunogenicity of the virus would be enhanced by matching codons of selected viral genes to those of the host. ...
Example-based machine translation (EBMT) is based on a bilingual corpus. In EBMT, sentences similar to an input sentence are retrieved from a bilingual corpus and then output is generated from translations of similar sentences. Therefore, a similarity measure between the input sentence and each sentence in the bilingual corpus is important for EBMT. If some similar sentences are missed from ret...
Synonymous substitution rates have been shown to vary among evolutionary lineages of both nuclear and organellar genes across a broad range of taxonomic groups. In animals, rate heterogeneity does not appear to be correlated across nuclear and mitochondrial genes. In this paper, we contrast substitution rates in two plant groups and show that grasses evolve more rapidly than palms at synonymous...
The genetic stability of ORF1a encoding non-structural proteins nsp1, nsp2, nsp3 and nsp4 of equine arteritis virus (EAV) has been analysed for nearly seven years in a persistently infected stallion of the Malopolska breed. Between November 2004 and June 2011, 11 semen samples were collected. Viral RNA extracted from semen of this carrier stallion was amplified, sequenced and compared with the ...
Synonymous mutations, which do not alter the protein sequence, have been shown to affect protein function [Sauna ZE, Kimchi-Sarfaty C (2011) Nat Rev Genet 12(10):683-691]. However, synonymous mutations are rarely investigated in the cancer genomics field. We used whole-genome and -exome sequencing to identify somatic mutations in 29 melanoma samples. Validation of one synonymous somatic mutatio...
BACKGROUND Comparative study of synonymous codon usage variations and factors influencing its diversification in α - cyanobacterial descendant Paulinella chromatophora and β - cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus PCC6301 has not been reported so far. In the present study, we investigated various factors associated with synonymous codon usage in the genomes of P. chromatophora and S. elongatus...
G + C composition at the third codon position (GC3) is widely reported to be correlated with synonymous codon usage bias. However, no quantitative attempt has been made to compare the extent of this correlation among different genomes. Here, we applied Shannon entropy from information theory to measure the degree of GC3 bias and that of synonymous codon usage bias of each gene. The strength of ...
BACKGROUND Synonymous DNA substitution rates in the plant chloroplast genome are generally relatively slow and lineage dependent. Non-synonymous rates are usually even slower due to purifying selection acting on the genes. Positive selection is expected to speed up non-synonymous substitution rates, whereas synonymous rates are expected to be unaffected. Until recently, positive selection has s...
Mycoplasma bovis is a major pathogen causing arthritis, respiratory disease and mastitis in cattle. A better understanding of its genetic features and evolution might represent evidences of surviving host environments. In this study, multiple factors influencing synonymous codon usage patterns in M. bovis (three strains' genomes) were analyzed. The overall nucleotide content of genes in the M. ...
Silent sites in mammals have classically been assumed to be free from selective pressures. Consequently, the synonymous substitution rate (Ks) is often used as a proxy for the mutation rate. Although accumulating evidence demonstrates that the assumption is not valid, the mechanism by which selection acts remain unclear. Recent work has revealed that the presence of exonic splicing enhancers (E...
