CENTRAL DOGMA
CODONS:
CODONS
• Codons are three nucleotide based in RNA
• It specify amino acid needed for protein
CODON OPTIMIZATION
• Codon optimization is a process used to improve gene
expression and increase the translational efficiency of a
gene of interest by accommodating codon bias of the host
organism.
• Codon usage biases are found in all eukaryotic and
prokaryotic genome
