JapaneseCodon Optimization
As experts in synthetic DNA, we understand the importance of accurate gene synthesis and its subsequent expression, particularly in heterologous systems. A multitude of factors, including codon bias, can affect the transcriptional and translational efficiency of a gene in a host organism. Azenta’s codon optimization tool considers these critical factors to produce codon optimized gene sequences for efficient expression in almost all host systems.
Codon Optimized Synthetic GENES
Codons represent the genetic code that transfers information from genes to mRNA to protein. Both redundancy and evolutionary constraints, including the availability of tRNA isoacceptors, TATA box, Shine-Dalgarno sequences, and more, result in preferential usage of one codon over another for the same amino acid. This phenomenon is known as codon bias.
Codon optimization is a process used to improve gene expression and increase the translational efficiency of a gene of interest by accommodating codon bias of the host organism.
