Biological Impact of Codon Optimality in Translation

1. INTRODUCTION When delving into the realms of codon optimality, we must first take a step back to observe our definitions and origins. At the most fundamental level, our genome is constructed from four basic building blocks, the nucleotides adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G) and thymine (T). When a transcript (utilising a uridine (U) […]
