Solutions

Expert Solution

Requirement for efficient translation of an mRNA are:

A strong promoter

A 5' cap

A poly A tail

A kozak consensus sequence

Explanation- Promoter strength plays an important role in protein production. A promoter and the choice of bacterial strain will have large effects on the production of the target protein.

All eukaryotic mRNAs are modified at the 5′ end with a cap structure, which is recognized during translation initiation by the cap-binding protein eIF4E. Most eukaryotic mRNAs are also posttranscriptionally modified by the addition of a 3′ poly(A) tail.

When both 5' cap and a poly(A) tail are present on an mRNA, they function together to induce a synergistic enhancement of translation.

The Kozak consensus sequence is a nucleic acid motif that functions as the protein translation initiation site in most eukaryotic mRNA transcripts. Kozak sequence (A/GCCAUGG) enhances translation from the correct initiation codon.
