Expression of Eukaryotic Proteins A bacterial Promoter/terminator must be used Bacteria can’t process introns, so cDNA must be used Translational Expression Vector Insertion of your gene into the MCS must be done just right to get the RBS at the optimum 8 bases away from start ATG Strong means that sometimes multiple termination sequences are used Companion site for Biotechnology. by Clark Copyright © 2009 by Academic Press.

FIGURE 10.3 Codon Usage Affects Rate of Translation. Bacteria prefer one codon for a particular amino acid to other redundant codons. In this example, the ribosome is stalled because it is waiting for lysine tRNA with a UUU anticodon. Companion site for Biotechnology. by Clark Copyright © 2009 by Academic Press.

FIGURE 10.15 Comparison of Recombinant Protein Expression SystemsEach protein expression system falls on a continuum of worst to best for characteristics such as speed, cost, glycosylation, folding, and government regulations.
