Comparison of responses by bacteriophages and bacteria to pressures on the base composition of open reading frames.

Applied bioinformatics - 1 Jan 2003

Mortimer James R, Forsdyke Donald R

Abstract excerpt

Differences in the base composition of genomes can occur because of GC pressure, purine-loading pressure (AG pressure) and RNY pressure, for which there are possible functional explanations, and because of the more abstract pressures exerted by individual bases. The graphical approach of Muto and Osawa was used to analyse how bacteriophages and bacteria balance potentially conflicting pressures on their genomes....
