Synonymous rare arginine codons and tRNA abundance affect protein production and quality of TEV protease variant.

It has been identified that a TEV protease (TEVp) variant, TEVp(5M), displays improved solubility. Here, we constructed fifteen TEVp(5M) variants with one or more of six rare arginine codons in the coding sequence replaced with abundant E. coli arginine codons. These codon variants expressed in eith...
