Gene- and genome-based analysis of significant codon patterns in yeast, rat and mice genomes with the CUT Codon UTilization tool

The translation of mRNA in all forms of life uses a three-nucleotide codon and aminoacyl-tRNAs to synthesize a protein. There are 64 possible codons in the genetic code, with codons for the ∼20 amino acids and 3 stop codons having 1- to 6-fold degeneracy. Recent studies have shown that families of s...
