Codon usage in twelve species of Drosophila.

BMC evolutionary biology - 15 Nov 2007

Vicario Saverio, Moriyama Etsuko N, Powell Jeffrey R

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Codon usage bias (CUB), the uneven use of synonymous codons, is a ubiquitous observation in virtually all organisms examined. The pattern of codon usage is generally similar among closely related species, but differs significantly among distantly related organisms, e.g., bacteria, yeast, and Drosophila. Several explanations for CUB have been offered and some have been supported by observations and...
