Although the genetic code is redundant, synonymous codons for the same amino acid are not used with equal frequencies in genomes, a phenomenon termed “codon usage bias.” Previous studies have demonstrated that synonymous changes in a coding sequence can exert significant cis effects on the gene’s expression level. However, whether the codon composi...
