Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the existence condition of hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg) termination codon bias. METHODS: A total of 174 reference sequences of all kinds of Hepatitis B virus(HBV) genotypes were chosen from GenBank, and compared by BioEdit. Then secondary structure of RNA was constructed and analyzed together. RESULTS: (1) There were two types of HBsAg termination codon: TAA and TGA in 174...
