Abstract excerpt
The parasite Plasmodium falciparum, responsible for the most deadly form of human malaria, is one of the extremely AT-rich genomes sequenced so far and known to possess many atypical characteristics. Using multivariate statistical approaches, the present study analyzes the amino acid usage pattern in 5038 annotated protein-coding sequences in P. falciparum clone 3D7. The amino acid composition of individual...
