  The rank ordered distribution of the codon usage frequencies for 123
bacteriae is best fitted by a three parameters function that is the sum of a
constant, an exponential and a linear term in the rank n. The parameters depend
(two parabolically) from the total GC content. The rank ordered distribution of
the amino acids is fitted by a straight line. The Shannon entropy computed over
all the codons is well fitted by a parabola in the GC content, while the
partial entropies computed over subsets of the codons show peculiar different
behavior, exhibiting therefore a first conspiracy effect. Moreover the sum of
the codon usage frequencies over particular sets, e.g. with C and A
(respectively G and U) as i-th nucleotide, shows a clear linear dependence from
the GC content, exhibiting another conspiracy effect.
