Abstract excerpt
The yeast TRP3 gene encodes a bifunctional protein with anthranilate synthase II and indoleglycerol-phosphate synthase activities. Replacing ten consecutive non-preferred codons in the indoleglycerol-phosphate synthase region of the TRP3 gene with synonymous preferred codons (to create the TRP3pr gene; translational pause replaced) causes a 1.5-fold reduction in relative indoleglycerol-phosphate synthase activity...
