Most E. coli genes possess a unique nucleotide composition at codon positions 3–5. (A) The frequency of distribution of nucleotide composition at codon positions 3–5 shows that 91% of E. coli genes have a unique nucleotide composition (occurrence = 1). The other 9% share at least one nucleotide composition with another gene (occurrence > 1). (B) Web logo [37] of genes that share the same nucleotide composition at codon positions 3–5. GFP score average (C) and translation efficiency (D) comparison of genes with a unique nucleotide composition at codon positions 3–5 vs. genes with repeated nucleotide compositions. The TE data were obtained from Morgan et al., 2018 [17]. Kruskal-Wallis nonparametric test ****<0.0001, 0.5 = nonsignificant.
