摘要

The genetic code is degenerate: most amino acids are coded by multiple codons. However, it is known that certain codons for a given amino acid are preferred over other synonymous codons. Theoretical studies have predicted and experiments have shown that this kind of a bias can lead to higher efficiency of translation, presumably accompanied by benefits in terms of the Darwinian fitness of the organism. However, population genetics models based on gene sequence data predict that, at least for certain organisms like the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, the fitness effects might be too small to be observed. Two recent studies (Carlini and Stephan 2003; Carlini 2004) show that even in such systems, under certain conditions, it is possible to empirically demonstrate the effects of codon bias at the phenotypic level, and the corresponding effect on at least one major component of the fitness of the organism.
