New perspectives into the evolutionary pressures acting on the Human intrinsically disordered proteins

2018-12-03

Abstract excerpt

The codon usage bias is the well-known phenomenon of an unequal use of synonymous codons in coding DNA. These patterns reflect the action of weak selection working at the molecular level and allows to quantify the effects of natural selection, which tend to increase the fitness of the organisms. The prevailing hypothesis to explain the origin of codons usage bias is the selection-mutation-drift theory , according...
