Abstract excerpt
Since its emergence, rabies virus (RABV) has been a major worldwide concern especially in developing countries. The nucleoprotein (N) of RABV is highly conserved and key for genetic typing, thus a better understanding of the N gene evolutionary trajectory can assist the development of control measures. We found that the N gene of RABV has a low codon usage bias with a mean effective number of codons (ENC) value...
