Example sentences for: codon-usage

How can you use “codon-usage” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Codon-usage values for whole genomes were obtained from the Codon Usage Database [ 47, 48].

  • The profile of codon usage for these amino acids by C. psittaci KynU clearly matches the genomic codon-usage profile of C. psittaci, but not that of H. sapiens.

  • Genes from each class, that is, native genes, potentially transferred genes (LTG), IS and phages, of the four groups of bacterial genomes ( Escherichia , Salmonella , Helicobacter , and Streptococcus ) were then retained for codon-usage analysis when their lengths were greater than 150 base-pairs (bp) to avoid artifacts linked to stochastic variations that might happen in shorter genes.

  • In particular, we considered how similar the Meloidogyne codon usage is to that of a 'typical' rhizobial protein by using the codon adaptation index (CAI) [ 44 ] . From an R. leguminosarum codon-usage table, we calculated the CAI for those amino acids precisely conserved between Mi-NodL and the rhizobial NodL protein to be 0.621 and 0.703 respectively.

  • Although not pointed out by Médigue et al . [ 5 ] , this result is surprising, because these genes are thought to have been acquired through several independent events from different species, and therefore should display very different codon-usage patterns and be separated by the analysis.
