Selection on synonymous codons in mammalian rhodopsins: a possible role in optimizing translational processes

BACKGROUND: Synonymous codon usage can affect many cellular processes, particularly those associated with translation such as polypeptide elongation and folding, mRNA degradation/stability, and splicing. Highly expressed genes are thought to experience stronger selection pressures on synonymous codo...
