Analysis of codon usage pattern is important to understand the genetic and evolutionary characteristics of genomes. We have used bioinformatic approaches to analyze the codon usage bias (CUB) of the genes located in human Y chromosome. Codon bias index (CBI) indicated that the overall extent of codon usage bias was low. The relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU) analysis suggested that approximately half of the codons out of 59 synonymous codons were most frequently used, and possessed a T or G at the third codon position. The codon usage pattern was different in different genes as revealed from correspondence analysis (COA). A significant correlation between effective number of codons (ENC) and various GC contents suggests that both mutation pressure and natural selection affect the codon usage pattern of genes located in human Y chromosome. In addition, Y-linked genes have significant difference in GC contents at the second and third codon positions, expression level, and codon usage pattern of some codons like the SPANX genes in X chromosome. 相似文献

密码子使用偏性(CUB)是生物体重要的进化特征,对研究物种进化、基因功能以及外源基因表达等具有重要科学意义。本研究利用糜子(Panicum miliaceum L.)叶绿体基因组中筛选出的53条蛋白编码序列,对其密码子使用模式及偏性进行了分析。结果表明,糜子叶绿体基因的有效密码子数(ENC)在37.14~61之间,多数密码子的偏性较弱。相对同义密码子使用度(RSCU)分析发现,RSCU > 1的密码子有32个,其中28个以A、U结尾,表明第3位密码子偏好使用A和U碱基。中性分析发现,GC3与GC12的相关性不显著,回归曲线斜率为0.2129,表明密码子偏性主要受到自然选择的影响;而ENC-plot分析发现大部分基因落在曲线的上方及周围,表明突变也影响了密码子偏性的形成。进一步的对应性分析发现,第1轴为主要影响因素,解释了17.92%的差异,其与ENC、GC3S值的相关性均达到显著水平,但与CBI、GCall不相关。最后,9个密码子被鉴定为糜子叶绿体基因组的最优密码子,糜子叶绿体基因组的密码子使用偏性可能受选择和突变共同作用。 相似文献

Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) virus is one among the major zoonosis viral diseases that use the Hyalomma ticks as their transmission vector to cause viral infection to the human and mammalian community. The fatality of infectious is high across the world especially in Africa, Asia, Middle East, and Europe. This study regarding codon usage bias of S, M, and L segments of the CCHF virus pertaining to the host Homo sapiens, reveals in-depth information about the evolutionary characteristics of CCHFV. Relative Synonymous Codon Usage (RSCU), Effective number of codons (ENC) were calculated, to determine the codon usage pattern in each segment. Correlation analysis between Codon adaptation index (CAI), GRAVY (Hydrophobicity), AROMO (Aromaticity), and nucleotide composition revealed bias in the codon usage pattern. There was no strong codon bias found among any segments of the CCHF virus, indicating both the factors i.e., natural selection and mutational pressure shapes the codon usage bias. 相似文献

Revelation of Influencing Factors in Overall Codon Usage Bias of Equine Influenza Viruses 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Equine influenza viruses (EIVs) of H3N8 subtype are culprits of severe acute respiratory infections in horses, and are still responsible for significant outbreaks worldwide. Adaptability of influenza viruses to a particular host is significantly influenced by their codon usage preference, due to an absolute dependence on the host cellular machinery for their replication. In the present study, we analyzed genome-wide codon usage patterns in 92 EIV strains, including both H3N8 and H7N7 subtypes by computing several codon usage indices and applying multivariate statistical methods. Relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU) analysis disclosed bias of preferred synonymous codons towards A/U-ended codons. The overall codon usage bias in EIVs was slightly lower, and mainly affected by the nucleotide compositional constraints as inferred from the RSCU and effective number of codon (ENc) analysis. Our data suggested that codon usage pattern in EIVs is governed by the interplay of mutation pressure, natural selection from its hosts and undefined factors. The H7N7 subtype was found less fit to its host (horse) in comparison to H3N8, by possessing higher codon bias, lower mutation pressure and much less adaptation to tRNA pool of equine cells. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report describing the codon usage analysis of the complete genomes of EIVs. The outcome of our study is likely to enhance our understanding of factors involved in viral adaptation, evolution, and fitness towards their hosts. 相似文献

Human Bocavirus (HBoV) is a novel virus which can cause respiratory tract disease in infants or children. In this study, the codon usage bias and the base composition variations in the available 11 complete HBoV genome sequences have been investigated. Although, there is a significant variation in codon usage bias among different HBoV genes, codon usage bias in HBoV is a little slight, which is mainly determined by the base compositions on the third codon position and the effective number of codons (ENC) value. The results of correspondence analysis (COA) and Spearman's rank correlation analysis reveals that the G + C compositional constraint is the main factor that determines the codon usage bias in HBoV and the gene's function also contributes to the codon usage in this virus. Moreover, it was found that the hydrophobicity of each protein and the gene length are also critical in affecting these viruses’ codon usage, although they were less important than that of the mutational bias and the genes’ function. At last, the relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU) of 44 genes from these 11 HBoV isolates is analyzed using a hierarchical cluster method. The result suggests that genes with same function yet from different isolates are classified into the same lineage and it does not depend on geographical location. These conclusions not only can offer an insight into the codon usage patterns and gene classification of HBoV, but also may help in increasing the efficiency of gene delivery/expression systems. 相似文献

Hepatitis C virus infection (HCV) alarmingly increases worldwide; it causes chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, so there is urgent need of developing effective and sufficient quantity of vaccine. HCV envelope protein E2 is the main target for developing as a vaccine candidate. Presently recombinant proteins can successfully be used as a vaccine for many diseases. This concern, it is challenging to produce sufficient quantities of many recombinant proteins from their expression hosts. One of the main factors affecting the success of expression of foreign genes in heterologous hosts is the divergence of codon usage of the target gene from that used in the expression system. In this study, we optimized the various genotypes of HCV envelope protein E2 gene according to the codon usage of Pichia pastoris and predicted the expression level. Synonymous codon usage of E2 adapted to that used by P. pastoris was estimated using the relative synonymous codon usage value (RSCU), codon adaptation index (CAI) and effective number of codon (ENC). The CAI of optimized HCV E2 sequences was enhanced from 0.638 to 0.833 and %GC was decreased from 56.05 to 44.05; this was significantly (p < 0.01) different from the native sequences. Codon with RSCU value less than one was replaced with most preferred synonymous codons. The ENC values of optimized HCV E2 sequences varied from 47.00 to 47.50, with a mean value of 47.15 and an SD of 0.14. Our study suggested that, from the measured values of predicted expression level, the codon optimized HCV E2 protein could be produced in sufficient quantity in the expression host; knowledge of the codon usage patterns of E2 of various genotypes facilitate the production of a promising unique vaccine candidate for HCV. 相似文献

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection, a worldwide contagion, causes a serious disorder in infected individuals. Analysis of codon usage can reveal much molecular information about this virus. The effective number of codon (ENC) values, relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU) values, codon adaptation index (CAI), and nucleotide contents was investigated in approximately 160 coding sequences (CDS) among 17 human cytomegalovirus genomes using the software CodonW. Linear regression analysis and logistic regression were performed to explore the preliminary data. The results showed that, overall, HCMV genomes had low codon usage bias (mean ENC = 47.619). However, the ENC of individual CDS varied widely and was distributed unevenly between host-related genes and viral-self-function genes (P = 0.002, odds ratio (OR) = 3.194), as did the GC content (P = 0.016, OR = 2.178). The ENC values correlated with CAI, GC content, and the nucleotide composing at the 3rd codon position (GC3s) (P < 0.001). There was a significant variation in the codon preference that depended on the RSCU data. The predicted ENC curve suggested that mutational pressure, rather than natural selection, was one of the main factors that determined the codon usage bias in HCMV. Among 123 genes with known function, the genes related to viral self-replication and viral–host interaction showed different ENC and CAI values, and GC and GC3s contents. In conclusion, the detailed codon usage bias theoretically revealed information concerning HCMV evolution and could be a valuable additional parameter for HCMV gene function research. 相似文献

Background: Mitochondrial ND gene, which encodes NADH dehydrogenase, is the first enzyme of the mitochondrial electron
transport chain. Leigh syndrome, a neurodegenerative disease caused by mutation in the ND2 gene (T4681C), is associated with
bilateral symmetric lesions in basal ganglia and subcortical brain regions. Therefore, it is of interest to analyze mitochondrial DNA
to glean information for evolutionary relationship. This study highlights on the analysis of compositional dynamics and selection
pressure in shaping the codon usage patterns in the coding sequence of MT-ND2 gene across pisces, aves and mammals by using
bioinformatics tools like effective number of codons (ENC), codon adaptation index (CAI), relative synonymous codon usage
(RSCU) etc. Results: We observed a low codon usage bias as reflected by high ENC values in MT-ND2 gene among pisces, aves
and mammals. The most frequently used codons were ending with A/C at the 3rd position of codon and the gene was AT rich in
all the three classes. The codons TCA, CTA, CGA and TGA were over represented in all three classes. The F1 correspondence
showed significant positive correlation with G, T3 and CAI while the F2 axis showed significant negative correlation with A and T
but significant positive correlation with G, C, G3, C3, ENC, GC, GC1, GC2 and GC3. Conclusions: The codon usage bias in MTND2
gene is not associated with expression level. Mutation pressure and natural selection affect the codon usage pattern in MT-ND
2 gene. 相似文献

In the present study, we examined GC nucleotide composition, relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU), effective number of codons (ENC), codon adaptation index (CAI) and gene length for 308 prokaryotic mechanosensitive ion channel (MSC) genes from six evolutionary groups: Euryarchaeota, Actinobacteria, Alphaproteobacteria, Betaproteobacteria, Firmicutes, and Gammaproteobacteria. Results showed that: (1) a wide variation of overrepresentation of nucleotides exists in the MSC genes; (2) codon usage bias varies considerably among the MSC genes; (3) both nucleotide constraint and gene length play an important role in shaping codon usage of the bacterial MSC genes; and (4) synonymous codon usage of prokaryotic MSC genes is phylogenetically conserved. Knowledge of codon usage in prokaryotic MSC genes may benefit from the study of the MSC genes in eukaryotes in which few MSC genes have been identified and functionally analysed. 相似文献

The prevailing COVID-19 pandemic has drawn the attention of the scientific community to study the evolutionary origin of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). This study is a comprehensive quantitative analysis of the protein-coding sequences of seven human coronaviruses (HCoVs) to decipher the nucleotide sequence variability and codon usage patterns. It is essential to understand the survival ability of the viruses, their adaptation to hosts, and their evolution.The current analysis revealed a high abundance of the relative dinucleotide (odds ratio), GC and CT pairs in the first and last two codon positions, respectively, as well as a low abundance of the CG pair in the last two positions of the codon, which might be related to the evolution of the viruses. A remarkable level of variability of GC content in the third position of the codon among the seven coronaviruses was observed. Codons with high RSCU values are primarily from the aliphatic and hydroxyl amino acid groups, and codons with low RSCU values belong to the aliphatic, cyclic, positively charged, and sulfur-containing amino acid groups. In order to elucidate the evolutionary processes of the seven coronaviruses, a phylogenetic tree (dendrogram) was constructed based on the RSCU scores of the codons. The severe and mild categories CoVs were positioned in different clades. A comparative phylogenetic study with other coronaviruses depicted that SARS-CoV-2 is close to the CoV isolated from pangolins (Manis javanica, Pangolin-CoV) and cats (Felis catus, SARS(r)-CoV). Further analysis of the effective number of codon (ENC) usage bias showed a relatively higher bias for SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV compared to SARS-CoV-2. The ENC plot against GC3 suggested that the mutational bias might have a role in determining the codon usage variation among candidate viruses.A codon adaptability study on a few human host parasites (from different kingdoms), including CoVs, showed a diverse adaptability pattern. SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV exhibit relatively lower but similar codon adaptability compared to MERS-CoV. 相似文献

Genetic changes in Hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyltransferace (HPRT1) gene can alter the expression of the dopamine neurotransmitter leads to abnormal neuron function, a disease called Lesch-Nyhan syndrome (LNS). Although different studies were conducted on LNS, information on codon usage bias (CUB) of HPRT1 gene is limited. The present study examines the genetic determinants of CUB in HPRT1 gene using twelve mammalian species. In the coding sequence of HPRT1 genes, A/T ending codons was most frequently used. A higher ENC value was observed indicating lower HPRT1 gene expression in the selected mammalian species. Correlation analysis indicates that compositional constraints under mutation pressure can involve in CUB of HPRT1 genes among the selected mammalian species. Relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU) value revealed that the codons such as ACT, AGG, ATT and AGC were over-represented in each of the mammalian species. Result from the analysis of the RSCU indicates that compositional constraint is a key driver for the variation in codon usage. Ratio of nonsynonymous (dN) and synonymous (dS) substitution further suggested that purifying selection occurs among the HPRT1 gene of studied mammals to maintain its protein function under the process of evolution. Our findings report an insight into the codon usage patterns of HPRT1 gene and will be useful for LNS management. 相似文献

Enterogenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) F18 strains are the main pathogenic bacteria causing severe diarrhea in humans and domestic animals. However, the information about synonymous codon usage pattern of ETEC F18 genome remains unclear. We conducted a genome-wide analysis of synonymous codon usage patterns in the ETEC F18 strain SRA: SAMN02471895. After filtering of the complete genome sequence, 4327 coding sequences were analyzed using multivariate statistical methods to calculate synonymous codon usage patterns and to evaluate the influence of various factors in shaping the codon usage. The mean GC content was 51.38%, with a slight preference for G/C-ending codons. Twenty-two codons were determined as ‘‘optimal codons”. ENC plots showed some of the genes were on or close to the expected curve, while only points with low-ENC values were below the curve. PR2 analysis showed that GC and AT were not used proportionally, suggesting major roles for mutational pressure and natural selection in shaping usage. Neutrality plots showed a significant correlation between GC12 and GC3, suggesting that mutational pressure is responsible for nucleotide composition in shaping the strength of codon usage. Translational selection was the main factor shaping the codon usage pattern of ETEC F18 genome, while other factors such as protein length, GRAVY and ARO values also influenced codon usage to some extent. We analyzed the codon usage pattern systematically and identified the factors shaping codon usage bias in the ETEC F18 genome. Such information further elucidates the mechanisms of synonymous codon usage bias and provides the basis of molecular genetic engineering and evolutionary studies. 相似文献

Origin of the 1918 pandemic H1N1 influenza A virus as studied by codon usage patterns and phylogenetic analysis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The pandemic of 1918 was caused by an H1N1 influenza A virus, which is a negative strand RNA virus; however, little is known about the nature of its direct ancestral strains. Here we applied a broad genetic and phylogenetic analysis of a wide range of influenza virus genes, in particular the PB1 gene, to gain information about the phylogenetic relatedness of the 1918 H1N1 virus. We compared the RNA genome of the 1918 strain to many other influenza strains of different origin by several means, including relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU), effective number of codons (ENC), and phylogenetic relationship. We found that the PB1 gene of the 1918 pandemic virus had ENC values similar to the H1N1 classical swine and human viruses, but different ENC values from avian as well as H2N2 and H3N2 human viruses. Also, according to the RSCU of the PB1 gene, the 1918 virus grouped with all human isolates and "classical" swine H1N1 viruses. The phylogenetic studies of all eight RNA gene segments of influenza A viruses may indicate that the 1918 pandemic strain originated from a H1N1 swine virus, which itself might be derived from a H1N1 avian precursor, which was separated from the bulk of other avian viruses in toto a long time ago. The high stability of the RSCU pattern of the PB1 gene indicated that the integrity of RNA structure is more important for influenza virus evolution than previously thought. 相似文献

目前,有关同义密码子使用偏性对蛋白质折叠的影响研究中,样本蛋白均来源于不同的物种。考虑到同义密码子使用偏性的物种差异性,选取枯草杆菌的核蛋白为研究对象。首先,将每条核蛋白按二级结构截取为α螺旋片段、β折叠片段和无规卷曲(α-β混合)片段,并计算其蛋白质折叠速率。然后,整理每个片段相应的核酸序列信息,计算其同义密码子使用度。在此基础上,分析枯草芽孢杆菌核蛋白的同义密码子使用偏性与蛋白质折叠速率的相关性。发现对于不同二级结构的肽链片段,都有部分密码子的使用偏性与其对应的肽链折叠速率显著相关。进一步分析发现,与肽链片段折叠速率显著相关的密码子绝大部分为枯草杆菌全序列或核蛋白序列的每一组同义密码子中使用度最高的密码子。结果表明,在蛋白质的折叠过程中,枯草芽孢杆菌的同义密码子使用偏性起着重要作用。 相似文献

Analysis of synonymous codon usage pattern in the genome of a thermophilic cyanobacterium, Thermosynechococcus elongatus BP-1 using multivariate statistical analysis revealed a single major explanatory axis accounting for codon usage variation in the organism. This axis is correlated with the GC content at third base of synonymous codons (GC3s) in correspondence analysis taking T. elongatus genes. A negative correlation was observed between effective number of codons i.e. Nc and GC3s. Results suggested a mutational bias as the major factor in shaping codon usage in this cyanobacterium. In comparison to the lowly expressed genes, highly expressed genes of this organism possess significantly higher proportion of pyrimidine-ending codons suggesting that besides, mutational bias, translational selection also influenced codon usage variation in T. elongatus. Correspondence analysis of relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU) with A, T, G, C at third positions (A3s, T3s, G3s, C3s, respectively) also supported this fact and expression levels of genes and gene length also influenced codon usage. A role of translational accuracy was identified in dictating the codon usage variation of this genome. Results indicated that although mutational bias is the major factor in shaping codon usage in T. elongatus, factors like translational selection, translational accuracy and gene expression level also influenced codon usage variation. 相似文献

Nucleotide composition and synonymous codon usage of open reading frames in Norovirus GII.4 variants
Wei Dan Yan Jin Zizhong Tang Yongmin Li 《Journal of biomolecular structure & dynamics》2020,38(16):4764-4773
AbstractNorovirus GII.4 variants, a genotype in genogroup II belonging to the genus Norovirus, is a single-strand positive sense RNA containing three open reading frames (ORF1, ORF2 and ORF3) and is the most important pathogen causing nonbacterial gastroenteritis outbreaks. By using bioinformatic softwares such as Codon W, SPSS and so on, a total of 292 strains of the viruses isolated from 1974 to 2016 were analyzed for nucleotide composition and synonymous codon usage in each ORF. The result shows that it is enriched for A over the other bases in nucleotide composition, G behind the other bases in the 3rd site of all synonymous codons in the three ORFs. The patterns of nucleotide composition and codon bias of ORF2 are similar to those of ORF3 and different from those of ORF1. There are generally UpA motif and CpG motif in the codons with the lowest proportion. Correspondence analysis indicates that the codon usage may be changing over a certain time period for ORF1 in 2006 and 2012, ORF2 in 2012, and ORF3 in 2013. ENC (effective number of codons) plot and other analyses indicate that both natural selection and mutational pressure play partly roles in the ORFs, but natural selection is more important for ORF2 and ORF3. Besides, we also found all optimal codons in the ORFs. The study provides a basic understanding of the mechanism for norovirus GII.4 codon usage bias.
