An Improved Implementation of Codon Adaptation Index

Codon adaptation index is a widely used index for characterizing gene expression in general and translation efficiency in particular. Current computational implementations have a number of problems leading to various systematic biases. I illustrate these problems and provide a better computer implem...

description Codon adaptation index is a widely used index for characterizing gene expression in general and translation efficiency in particular. Current computational implementations have a number of problems leading to various systematic biases. I illustrate these problems and provide a better computer implementation to solve these problems. The improved CAI can predict protein production better than CAI from other commonly used implementations.
