Isochores and the evolutionary genomics of vertebrates
G Bernardi - Gene, 2000 - Elsevier
The nuclear genomes of vertebrates are mosaics of isochores, very long stretches (≫
300kb) of DNA that are homogeneous in base composition and are compositionally …

A simple model based on mutation and selection explains trends in codon and amino-acid usage and GC composition within and across genomes
RD Knight, SJ Freeland, LF Landweber - Genome biology, 2001 - Springer
Background Correlations between genome composition (in terms of GC content) and usage
of particular codons and amino acids have been widely reported, but poorly explained. We …

Codon usage between genomes is constrained by genome-wide mutational processes
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 …
