From: Codon usage suggests that translational selection has a major impact on protein expression in trypanosomatids

Figure 1

Relative frequency of synonymous codon usage in the tandem, high expression gene sets from T. brucei and L. major; codon usage patterns were broadly similar in T. brucei and T. cruzi (data not shown). Tandem amplified genes were considered highly expressed if represented by ≥ 10 mass spectra from whole-cell proteome analysis of four life-cycle stages of T. cruzi [21].
