Four bioengineered bacteria having the fasG gene were constructed using two Escherichia coli expression strains (BL21 (DE3) and Rossetta (DE3)) with different tRNA profiles and two E. coli expression vectors (pET28a(+) and pGEX-KG) to examine the influence of rare codons on the expression of the fasG gene. The induction expression result of bioengineered bacteria showed that the expression levels of target proteins in Rossetta (DE3), which contained the tRNAs of the rare codons, were higher than in BL21 (DE3), either using pET-fasG or pKG-fasG.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
