Because the genetic codon is known for degeneracy, its effect on enzyme thermal property is seldom investigated. A dataset was constructed for GH10 xylanase coding sequences and optimal temperatures for activity (T-opt). Codon contents and relative synonymous codon usages were calculated and respectively correlated with the enzyme T-opt values, which were used to describe the xylanase thermophilic tendencies without dividing them into two thermophilic and mesophilic groups. After analyses of codon content and relative synonymous codon usages were checked by the Bonferroni correction, we found five codons, with three (AUA, AGA, and AGG) correlating positively and two (CGU and AGC) correlating negatively with the T-opt value. The three positive codons are purine-rich codons, and the two negative codons have A-ends. The two negative codons are pyridine-rich codons, and one has a C-end. Comparable with the codon C- and A-ending features, C- and A-content within mRNA correlated negatively and positively with the T-opt value, respectively. Thereby, codons have effects on enzyme thermal property. When the issue is analyzed at the residual level, the effect of codon message is lost. The codons relating to enzyme thermal property are selected by thermophilic force at nucleotide level.
