Overview Service Process Examples and Solutions Frequently Asked Questions

Overview

Codon optimization for E. coli is a crucial step in maximizing protein expression levels. E. coli is widely used for protein production due to its rapid growth, well-characterized genetics, and ability to express a wide range of proteins. However, the efficiency of protein expression can be limited if the codon usage of the target gene does not match the preferences of E. coli. This is where codon optimization comes in. By modifying the gene sequence to use codons that are more frequently utilized by E. coli, we can significantly improve protein yield and functionality.
