Codon Usage Tables for Python, from kazusa.or.jp

Provides codon usage tables as dictionnaries, for Python 3+

Supported organisms include: B. subtilis, C. elegans, D. melanogaster, E. coli, G. gallus, H. sapiens, M. musculus, M. musculus domesticus, S. cerevisiae.

These tables are from kazusa.or.jp and here is the original paper to cite:

Codon usage tabulated from the international DNA sequence databases:
status for the year 2000.

This project was started at the Edinburgh Genome Foundry by Zulko and is released on Github under a Public Domain licence (and no warranty whatsoever, please cross-check the codon usage with other sources if you are not sure). Feel free to add other tables if you think of more commonly used species.

Installation

via pip:

pip install python_codon_tables

Manual:

(sudo) python setup.py install

Usage

import python_codon_tables as pct

# PRINT THE LIST OF NAMES OF ALL AVAILABLE TABLES
print ('Available tables:', pct.available_tables)

# LOAD ONE TABLE BY NAME
table = pct.get_table("b_subtilis_1423")
print (table['T']['ACA'])  # returns 0.4
print (table['*']['UAA'])  # returns 0.61

# LOAD ALL TABLES AT ONCE
codon_tables = pct.get_all_tables()
print (codon_tables['c_elegans_6239']['L']['CUA'])  # returns 0.09
