Graphical displays are provided of translational kinetics values of codon pairs in a host organism plotted as a function of polypeptide-encoding nucleotide sequence. Such translational kinetics values of codon pair frequencies correspond to the predicted translational pausing properties of a codon pair in a host organism. The graphical displays provided reflect the relative over-representation or under-representation of each codon pair in an organism, thereby facilitating analysis of translational kinetics of an mRNA into polypeptide by comparing graphical displays of different codon pairs in sequences encoding the polypeptide. The graphical displays of translational kinetics values also can display codon pair properties on comparable numerical scales, thereby facilitating analysis of translational kinetics of an mRNA into polypeptide in different organisms by comparing comparably scaled graphical displays of the same or different codon pairs in sequences encoding the polypeptide. Also contemplated herein is the use of the graphical displays described herein for tracking the entire process of creating a refined polypeptide-encoding nucleotide sequence. In particular, additional translational kinetics graphical displays can be created to illustrate differences and / or similarities of translational kinetics of a polypeptide-encoding nucleotide sequence in which one or more codon pairs have been modified. Additionally, numerous translational kinetics graphical displays can be created to illustrate differences and / or similarities of translational kinetics of a polypeptide-encoding nucleotide sequence when expressed in two or more different organisms.

The present invention relates to systems and methods for measuring the rate of translation of a target protein in cells, which are based on the detection of translation of one or more predetermined codon pairs during synthesis of the target protein. The detection is provided by a FRET signal emitted from labeled tRNA molecules which are juxtaposed during synthesis of the protein.

A novel and stable attenuated poliovirus is produced by engineering an indigenous replication element (cre), into the 5′ non-translated genomic region (with inactivation of the native ere element located in the coding region of 2C (mono-crePV), and replacing the nucleic acid sequence of all or part of the capsid coding region (PI) with a substitute PI coding region having reduced codon pair bias. The stably attenuated poliovirus is effective for vaccines and immunization.

The present invention is the use of designed recombinant viruses for the treatment of various forms of malignant tumors. The recombinant viruses of the invention are those in which one or more regionsof the wild type virus was exchanged with a synthetic recoded sequence that reduces the codon pair score relative to human codon pair bias, or that increase the number for CpG di-nucleotides, or thatincreases the number of UpA di-nucleotides. The method of the present invention is particularly useful for the treatment of malignant tumors in various organs, such as: breast, skin, colon, bronchialpassage, epithelial lining of the gastrointestinal, upper respiratory and genito-urinary tracts, liver, prostate and the brain. Astounding remissions in experimental animals have been demonstrated for the treatment of malignant glioblastoma multiforme, as well as for the treatment of breast cancer and melanoma as well.

The invention relates to a method for analyzing the codon usage pattern of multiple Rutaceae species, comprising: obtaining the codon sequence of each species through the genetic data of multiple Rutaceae species; extracting the first characteristic value of the codon sequence , verify the evolutionary relationship of the plurality of species with the relationship of the first eigenvalue; extract the second eigenvalue of the codon sequence, and draw a characteristic relationship diagram with the second eigenvalue to verify the evolutionary conservation of the plurality of species degree; extract the high-frequency codon / codon pair in the codon sequence, and verify the evolutionary conservation correlation of the multiple species with the relationship of the high-frequency codon / codon pair; the codon of the codon sequence The RSCU value was clustered with the codon RSCU value of the plant species, and the clustering results were used to verify the order of the multiple species; the Euclidean distance between the GC3 content of the codon sequence was obtained to verify the genetic relationship of the multiple species.

On the premise that the amino acid sequence of the glucose oxidase is not changed, the gene sequence of the glucose oxidase is optimized according to pichia pastoris preferred codons by comprehensively considering the influencing factors such as use frequency ofthe codons, adjustment of GC content, deletion of instable sequences, secondary mRNA structure and the like; and the nucleotide sequence of the optimized glucose oxidase gene is shown as SEQ ID NO.1.The invention further provides the expression vector and a recombinant host strain containing the optimized gene of the glucose oxidase. The optimized gene is transferred to the pichia pastoris for expression, and the test results show that: compared with the gene before optimization, the secreting expression quantity of the optimized gene in the pichia pastoris is remarkably improved. The application effect tests of the glucose oxidase show that the expressed recombinant glucose oxidase has the same using effect as a commercial enzyme preparation.

The present invention provides a modified flavivirus, such as a modified type 1, type 2, type 3, type 4 dengue virus, a combination of these viruses, or a tetravalent combination of these viruses. The modifications according to various aspects of the invention result in reduced expression of the viral protein as compared to the parent virus, where the expression reduction is the result of recoding one or more regions of the virus. For example, a prM or envelope (E) region may be recoded. In various embodiments, the one or more regions are recoded by reducing the codon pair preference or codon use preference of the protein coding sequence. These modified flaviviruses are useful as vaccine compositions to provide protective immune responses.
