Evolution of codon usage and base contents in kinetoplastid protozoans.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Sept 1994

Alvarez F, Robello C, Vignali M

Abstract excerpt

In this study we analyze and compare the trends in codon usage in five representative species of kinetoplastid protozoans (Crithidia fasciculata, Leishmania donovani, L. major, Trypanosoma cruzi and T. brucei), with the purpose of investigating the processes underlying these trends. A principal component analysis shows that the G+C content at the third codon position represents the main source of codon-usage...
