Stop codons in bacteria are not selectively equivalent

BACKGROUND: The evolution and genomic stop codon frequencies have not been rigorously studied with the exception of coding of non-canonical amino acids. Here we study the rate of evolution and frequency distribution of stop codons in bacterial genomes. RESULTS: We show that in bacteria stop codons e...
