Codon usage bias - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Codon usage bias refers to differences in the frequency of occurrence of synonymous codons in genomic DNA. A codon is a series of three nucleotides (triplets) that encodes a specific amino acid resid...

CodonW is a programme designed to simplify the Multivariate analysis (correspondence analysis) of codon and amino acid usage. It also calculates standard indices of codon usage. It has both menu and command-line interfaces.

CAI is a measurement of the relative adaptiveness of the codon usage of a gene towards the codon usage of highly expressed genes. The relative adaptiveness (w) of each codon is the ratio of the usage of each codon, to that of the most abundant codon for the same amino acid.

Most such coding statistics measure either codon usage bias, base compositional bias between codon positions, or periodicity in base occurrence (or a mixture of all them). Exhaustive reviews can be found elsewhere (see, for instance, Gelfand gelfand:1995a and the references therein).

PLoS Computational Biology is an open-access ... To this aim, we introduce a clustering method based on information theory, specifically designed to cluster genes according to their codon usage and apply it to the coding sequences of Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis.
