Codon Bias Computation

This page can be used to compute codon bias for genes.   In DNA translation mulitple codons can be translated to the same amino acid.   The term codon bias refers to the tendency for some codon translations to more commonly found than others.   Given a DNA sequence of a coding region this page will compute the relative proportions of each codon to amino acid translation.
