JCat 1.0
:: DESCRIPTION
JCat (Java Codon Adaptation Tool)presents a simple method to adapt the Codon Usage to most sequenced prokaryotic organisms and selected eukaryotic organisms. The codon adaptation plays a major role in cases where foreign genes are expressed in hosts and the codon usage of the host differs from that of the organism where the gene stems from. Unadapted codons in the host can for example lead to a minor expression rate.
