E.coli codon usage optimization

How to optimize a gene for E.coli codon usage using mrgene.com’s online software tool.
The movie below explains how to optimize a gene for E.coli codon usage.


.
Mr. Gene’s online tool automatically tries to eliminate DNA motifs known to hamper expression in E.coli (and other prokarya). Ribosomal entry sites, TATA-Boxes or -35 Boxes present within […]


some like it hot - others like more protein!
