Codon usage table for Candida albicans Assembly 21 This table was produced with the GCG program CodonFrequency using the orf_coding_assembly_21.fasta.gz file dated 20-Sep-2007. Mitochondrial gene sequences were removed from the file before calculating codon usage frequencies. Note that C. albicans uses an alternative genetic code for nuclear genes, different from that used by most other fungi. Details and links to translation tables for nuclear and mitochondrial genes can be found at NCBI's Taxonomy Browser: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Taxonomy/Browser/wwwtax.cgi?mode=Info&id=237561&lvl=3&lin=f&keep=1&srchmode=1&unlock In the tab-delimited table below, the columns are as follows: 1) Amino acid, in three-letter code 2) Codon for that amino acid 3) Number of occurrences of that codon in the genes from which the table is compiled 4) Expected number of occurrences of that codon per 1000 codons in genes whose codon usage is identical to that compiled in the codon frequency table 5) Fraction of occurrences of that codon in its synonymous codon family Copy and paste the table into a spreadsheet program for an easy-to-read display.
