Despite the ratio of U 3 % was the highest, the major compositional constraint, which shaping the synonymous codon usage pattern of HAV genome, was from the percent of nucleotide A on the third codon position (Table 4) . This discovery was different from many reports which suggest that C+G compositional constraints were the major factor influencing codon usage bias in virus genome [18, 29, 30] . Mutational pressure and natural selection are generally thought to be the main factors that account for codon usage variation between genes in different Table 3 Summary of correlation analysis between the A, U, C, G contents and A 3 , U 3 , C 3 , G 3 organisms [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] . ./cache/cord-274375-a11ztdpg.txt ./txt/cord-274375-a11ztdpg.txt
