A simple model based on mutation and selection explains trends in codon and amino-acid usage and GC composition within and across genomes
BACKGROUND: Correlations between genome composition (in terms of GC content) and usage of particular codons and amino acids have been widely reported, but poorly explained. We show here that a simple model of processes acting at the nucleotide level explains codon usage across a large sample of spec...
