Abstract excerpt
Base composition, codon usages and amino acid usages have been analyzed by taking 529 orthologous sequences of Aquifex aeolicus and Bacillus subtilis, having different optimal growth temperatures. These two bacteria do not have significant difference in overall GC composition, but GC(1+2) and GC3 levels were found to vary significantly. Significant increments in purine content and GC3 composition have been...
