Abstract excerpt
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Omicron variant is a heavily mutated virus and designated as a variant of concern. To investigate the codon usage pattern of this new variant, we performed mutation and codon bias analysis for Omicron as well as for its sub-lineages BA.1 and BA.2 and compared them with the original SARS-CoV-2 and the Delta variant sequences obtained in this study. Our...
