Abstract excerpt
To reveal the factors influencing architecture of protein-coding genes in staphylococcal phages, relative synonymous codon usage variation has been investigated in 920 protein-coding genes of 16 staphylococcal phages. As expected for AT rich genomes, there are predominantly A and T ending codons in all 16 phages. Both Nc plot and correspondence analysis on relative synonymous codon usage indicates that mutation...
