Absence of translationally selected synonymous codon usage bias in Helicobacter pylori
1 Apr 2000
Abstract excerpt
Synonymous codon usage in the complete genome of Helicobacter pylori was investigated. The moderate A+T-richness of the genome (G+C=39 mol%) is reflected in the overall synonymous codon usage but the frequencies of some codons cannot be explained by simple mutational biases. A low level of heterogeneity among genes was observed, but this does not appear to be due to varying mutational bias or translational...
