Genomic Evidence for Simultaneous Optimization of Transcription and Translation through Codon Variants in the <italic toggle="yes">pmoCAB</italic> Operon of Type Ia Methanotrophs

ABSTRACT Understanding the interplay between genotype and phenotype is a fundamental goal of functional genomics. Methane oxidation is a microbial phenotype with global-scale significance as part of the carbon biogeochemical cycle and a sink for greenhouse gas. Microorganisms that oxidize methane (m...
