Mutation and selection cause codon usage and bias in mitochondrial genomes of ribbon worms (Nemertea).
The phenomenon of codon usage bias is known to exist in many genomes and it is mainly determined by mutation and selection. To understand the patterns of codon usage in nemertean mitochondrial genomes, we use bioinformatic approaches to analyze the protein-coding sequences of eight nemertean species...
