Abstract excerpt
A completely synthetic bovine copper-zinc superoxide dismutase gene (Cu-ZnSOD), designed using the most favoured codons for expression in yeast, was constructed. Fortuitous mutations introduced while cloning the synthetic gene permitted the additional construction of four altered-polypeptide products representing two single (Pro121-->Leu and Gly128-->Asp), one double (Pro100-->Leu, Arg113-->Lys) and one triple...
