codcmp |
It counts the number of the 64 possible codons which are unused (i.e. has a usage fraction of 0) in either one or the other or both of the codon usage tables.
The usage fraction of a codon is its proportion (0 to 1) of the total of the codons in the sequences used to construct the usage table.
For each codon that is used in both tables, it takes the difference between the usage fraction. The sum of the differences and the sum of the differences squared is reported in the output file, together with the number of unused codons.

# CODCMP codon usage table comparison # Eeco.cut vs Ehin.cut Sum Squared Difference = 2.337 Mean Squared Difference = 0.037 Root Mean Squared Difference = 0.191 Sum Difference = 9.840 Mean Difference = 0.154 Codons not appearing = 0
If the name of a codon usage file is specified on the command line, then this file will first be searched for in the current directory and then in the 'data/CODONS' directory of the EMBOSS distribution.
To see the available EMBOSS codon usage files, run:
% embossdata -showall
To fetch one of the codon usage tables (for example 'Emus.cut') into your current directory for you to inspect or modify, run:
% embossdata -fetch -file Emus.cut
