We have analyzed synonymous codon usage in the genome of A. tamarense CCMP 1598 for protein-coding sequences from 10865 expressed sequence tags (ESTs). We reconstructed a total of 4284 unigenes, including 74 ribosomal protein and 40 plastid-related genes, from ESTs using FrameDP, an open reading frame (ORF) prediction program. Correspondence analysis of A. tamarense genes based on codon usage showed that the GC content at the third base of synonymous codons (GC3s) was strongly correlated with th ...[more]
