Human viruses have codon usage biases that match highly expressed proteins in the tissues they infect

2017-01-01

Abstract excerpt

It is well-documented that codon usage biases affect gene translational efficiency; however, it is less known if viruses share their host's codon usage motifs. We determined that human-infecting viruses share similar codon usage biases as proteins that are expressed in tissues the viruses infect. By performing 7,052,621 pairwise comparisons of genes from humans versus genes from 113 viruses that infect humans, we...
