Abstract | In the present study, we examined GC nucleotide composition, relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU), effective number of codons (ENC), codon adaptation index (CAI) and gene length for 308 prokaryotic mechanosensitive ion channel (MSC) genes from six evolutionary groups: Euryarchaeota, Actinobacteria, Alphaproteobacteria, Betaproteobacteria, Firmicutes, and Gammaproteobacteria. Results showed that: (1) a wide variation of over representation of nucleotides exists in the MSC genes; (2) codon usage bias varies considerably among the MSC genes; (3) both nucleotide constraint and gene length play an |
