Nanopore sequencing is a rapidly maturing technology delivering long reads in real time on
a portable instrument at low cost. Not surprisingly, the community has rapidly taken up this …

Choices of synonymous codons in unicellular organisms are here reviewed, and differences
in synonymous codon usages between Escherichia coli and the yeast Saccharomyces …

A simple, effective measure of synonymous codon usage bias, the Codon Adaptation Index,
is detailed. The index uses a reference set of highly expressed genes from a species to …

A simple measure is presented that quantifies how far the codon usage of a gene departs
from equal usage of synonymous codons. This measure of synonymous codon usage bias …

Production of interleukin-1 and tumour necrosis factor from stimulated human monocytes is
inhibited by a new series of pyridinyl-imidazole compounds. Using radiolabelled and radio …

Abstract The University of Wisconsin Genetics Computer Group (UWGCG) has been
organized to develop computational tools for the analysis and publication of biological …

Observed patterns of synonymous codon usage are explained in terms of the joint effects of
mutation, selection, and random drift. Examination of the codon usage in 165 Escherichia …

Codon usage data has been compiled for 110 yeast genes. Cluster analysis on relative
synonymous codon usage revealed two distinct groups of genes. One group corresponds to …

It is argued that the bias in synonymous codon usage observed in unicellular organisms is
due to a balance between the forces of selection and mutation in a finite population, with …

Abstract The complete 1,210-amino acid sequence of the human epidermal growth factor
(EGF) receptor precursor, deduced from cDNA clones derived from placental and A431 …
