Divergence in codon usage of Lactobacillus species.
We have analyzed codon usage patterns of 70 sequenced genes from different Lactobacillus species. Codon usage in lactobacilli is highly biased. Both inter-species and intra-species heterogeneity of codon usage bias was observed. Codon usage in L. acidophilus is similar to that in L. helveticus, but dissimilar to that in L. bulgaricus, L. casei, L. pentosus and L. plantarum. Codon usage in the l...
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...
متن کاملSynonymous codon usage in bacteria.
In most bacteria, synonymous codons are not used with equal frequencies. Different factors have been proposed to contribute to codon usage preference, including translational selection, GC composition, strand-specific mutational bias, amino acid conservation, protein hydropathy, transcriptional selection and even RNA stability. The review discusses these factors and their contribution to bias i...

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 کاملCodon usage in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
We have generated a codon usage table for Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Codon usage in P. aeruginosa is extremely biased. In contrast to E. coli and yeast, P. aeruginosa preferentially uses those codons within a synonymous codon group with the strongest predicted codon-anticodon interaction. We were unable to correlate a particular codon usage pattern with predicted levels of mRNA expressivity. The c...
