Evolution of codon usage in Zika virus genomes is host and vector specific.

Emerging microbes & infections - 12 Oct 2016

Butt Azeem Mehmood, Nasrullah Izza, Qamar Raheel, Tong Yigang

Abstract excerpt

The codon usage patterns of viruses reflect the evolutionary changes that allow them to optimize their survival and adapt their fitness to the external environment and, most importantly, their hosts. Here we report the genotype-specific codon usage patterns of Zika virus (ZIKV) strains from the current and previous outbreaks. Several genotype-specific and common codon usage traits were noted in the ZIKV coding...
