Menzella, HG (2011) Comparison of two codon optimization strategies to enhance recombinant protein production in Escherichia coli. Microb. Cell Fact. 10:15

Abstract

Variations in codon usage between species are one of the major causes affecting recombinant protein expression levels, with a significant impact on the economy of industrial enzyme production processes. The use of codon-optimized genes may overcome this problem. However, designing a gene for optimal expression requires choosing from a vast number of possible DNA sequences and different codon optimization methods have been used in the past decade. Here, a comparative study of the two most common methods is presented using calf prochymosin as a model.
