codonUsageToolkit

Toolkit to manipulate codon usage datasets

About codonUsageToolkit

This toolkit allows you to:

1. codonHeatmap: build per-species/per-sequence codon usage heatmaps

2. codonPCA: perform PCA analysis of per-species/per-sequence codon usage RSCU values and plot scores and loadings plot

3. protAbundanceVSrscu: using a table of protein abundances for each gene, and a matched matrix of codon RSCU values for each of the genes, it builds plots depicting the correlation between RSCU and protein abundance, for each codon, and with individual plots for each amino acid

Detailed usage and input needed for each script can be found at the top of each individual script. Example data used in the scripts is found in the "data" folder included in this release.
