Scientific paper

The enzyme Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (GAPDH) catalyses the
decomposition of glucose. The gene that produces the GAPDH is therefore present
in a wide class of organisms. We show that for this gene the average value of
the fluctuations in nucleotide distribution in the codons, normalized to strand
bias, provides a reasonable measure of how the gene has evolved in time.
