Recombination, meiotic expression and human codon usage

Recombination, meiotic expression and human codon usage

Synonymous codon usage (SCU) varies widely among human genes. In particular, genes involved in different functional categories display a distinct codon usage, which was interpreted as evidence that SCU is adaptively constrained to optimize translation efficiency in distinct cellular states. We demon...
