Degeneration in codon usage within the region of suppressed recombination in the mating-type chromosomes of Neurospora tetrasperma.

Eukaryotic cell - 1 Apr 2011

Whittle C A, Sun Y, Johannesson H

Abstract excerpt

The origin and early evolution of sex chromosomes are currently poorly understood. The Neurospora tetrasperma mating-type (mat) chromosomes have recently emerged as a model system for the study of early sex chromosome evolution, since they contain a young (<6 million years ago [Mya]), large (>6.6-Mb) region of suppressed recombination. Here we examined preferred-codon usage in 290 genes (121,831 codon positions)...
