Figure 1

Nucleotide substitution profiles in BCP and preC. The top panel illustrates frequencies of all mutations in the BCP and preC of viral genomes. Hot spots of mutations are largely congruent in patients from Beijing (upper half) and Jinxiang (lower half) except for different mutation rates at certain positions. The bottom panel demonstrates the positions of the X gene, BCP and preC gene in the region. The overlapped part for all three regions is unlikely to mutate.
