Comparison of codon usage measures and their applicability in prediction of microbial gene expressivity
Background: There are a number of methods (also called: measures) currently in use that quantify codon usage in genes. These measures are often influenced by other sequence proper...

Differences in codon bias cannot explain differences in translational power among microbes
Background: Translational power is the cellular rate of protein synthesis normalized to the biomass invested in translational machinery. Published data suggest a previously unreco...

Sequence similarity is more relevant than species specificity in probabilistic backtranslation
Background: Backtranslation is the process of decoding a sequence of amino acids into the corresponding codons. All synthetic gene design systems include a backtranslation module....

Computational identification of rare codons of Escherichia coli based on codon pairs preference
Background: Codon bias is believed to play an important role in the control of gene expression. In Escherichia coli, some rare codons, which can limit the expression level of exog...
