Abstract excerpt
This paper reports on the relationship between the number of silent differences and the codon usage changes in the lineages leading to human and rat. Examination of 102 pairs of homologous genes gives rise to four main conclusions: (1) We have previously demonstrated the existence of a codon usag...
