Codon context is an important feature of gene primary structure that modulates mRNA decoding
accuracy. We have developed an analytical software package and a graphical interface …

Insights into the genomic adaptive traits of Treponema pallidum, the causative bacterium of
syphilis, have long been hampered due to the absence of in vitro culture models and the …

Background Codon usage and codon-pair context are important gene primary structure features
