Description
Kathleen O'Connor, Benjamin Mallinger, Nicholas Bedard, and Robin Patel study codon bias variation in Staphylococcus aureus, in a research paper from 2026. The bacterium causes many diseases in community and hospital settings. Most evolution work tracks coding changes, while silent changes in codon choice get less study, so their patterns and effect on protein output were unclear.
Codon use in more than two thousand genes from a reference strain was compared across all closed public genomes. Genomes were sorted by disease state, source lab, and collection site. A standard index scored bias at gene and genome level. Ribosome-linked genes scored highest with tight spread. Scores also tracked measured protein levels in lab data.
