Unexpected correlations between gene expression and codon usage bias from microarray data for the whole Escherichia coli K-12 genome.

abstract：:The locus control region is required for high-level, position-independent expression of mammalian beta-globin genes. It is marked by five major DNase hypersensitive sites (HSs) in a 16 kb region of chromatin, and the protein-DNA complexes that form these HSs may interact in a holocomplex that carries out the full func...
