Abstract

First triplets of mRNA coding region affect the yield of translation. We have applied the flowseq method to analyze >30 000 variants of the codons 2–11 of the fluorescent protein reporter to identify factors affecting the protein synthesis. While the negative influence of mRNA secondary structure on translation has been confirmed, a positive role of rare codons at the beginning of a coding sequence for gene expression has not been observed. The identity of triplets proximal to the start codon contributes more to the protein yield then more distant ones. Additional in-frame start codons enhance translation, while Shine–Dalgarno-like motifs downstream the initiation codon are inhibitory. The metabolic cost of amino acids affects the yield of protein in the poor medium. The most efficient translation was observed for variants with features resembling those of native Escherichia coli genes.
