Parasite genome databases and genome research resources


Parasitic Organism Codon Usage Tables

A great service, and all set up and brought to you by Evolutionary Genetics Lab. / National Institute of Genetics / 1111 Yata, Mishima 411 JAPAN


These tables are calculated automatically from annotated Genbank entries. The process is set up such that any species with greater than 25 open reading frames annotated in Genbank entries automatically gets a table made (see here for details).

I have made links here to the parasitic organisms covered by the genome projects (and a few other guest species).

To search the database of species go to the

search engine

They also provide a little routine to calculate the codon usage of your favourite gene(s):
