It is well known that codon bias and gene expression are correlated. The established explanation is that mRNAs with a high codon adaptation index (CAI) — that is, with a high number of 'preferred' ...

Analysis of genome-wide codon bias shows that only two parameters effectively differentiate the genome-wide codon bias of 100 eubacterial and archaeal organisms. The first parameter correlates with ...

A new study published on the preprint server bioRxiv* in June 2020 shows that the proportion of A/T pairing in viral genomes may increase the tendency to infect humans because of the matching ...
