摘要：

An analysis of 4680 codons expressed by pathogenic Entamoeba histolytica showed the A + U content of coding sequences to be 67%. The preference for A + U resulted in an unusual codon usage with an A + U content of 84% in the third codon position. The data show a remarkable similarity to those obtained for Plasmodium falciparum.
