Codon Usage Bias Variation and Evolutionary Signatures of Epstein–Barr Virus in Distinct Epithelial Cancers

genes displayed highly conserved codon usage despite cancer-associated variants. Collectively, this study demonstrates that codon usage patterns of specific EBV genes are associated with tumor background and are jointly shaped by gene function and viral lineage structure.

Abstract

genes displayed highly conserved codon usage despite cancer-associated variants. Collectively, this study demonstrates that codon usage patterns of specific EBV genes are associated with tumor background and are jointly shaped by gene function and viral lineage structure.
