Evolutionary Stability Optimizer (ESO): A Novel Approach to Identify and Avoid Mutational Hotspots in DNA Sequences While Maintaining High Expression Levels.

Abstract excerpt

Modern synthetic biology procedures rely on the ability to generate stable genetic constructs that keep their functionality over long periods of time. However, maintenance of these constructs requires energy from the cell and thus reduces the host's fitness. Natural selection results in loss-of-functionality mutations that negate the expression of the construct in the population. Current approaches for the...
