Base composition is the primary factor responsible for the variation of amino acid usage in zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata).
In the present study, we carried out an examination of the amino acid usage in the zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) proteome. We found that tRNA abundance, base composition, hydrophobicity and aromaticity, protein second structure, cysteine residue (Cys) content and protein molecular weight had sig...
