E-CAI: a novel server to estimate an expected value of Codon Adaptation Index (eCAI).

BMC bioinformatics - 29 Jan 2008

Puigbò Pere, Bravo Ignacio G, Garcia-Vallvé Santiago

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The Codon Adaptation Index (CAI) is a measure of the synonymous codon usage bias for a DNA or RNA sequence. It quantifies the similarity between the synonymous codon usage of a gene and the synonymous codon frequency of a reference set. Extreme values in the nucleotide or in the amino acid composition have a large impact on differential preference for synonymous codons. It is thence essential to...
