Here, we present a method for expressing multiple open reading frames (ORFs) from single transcripts using the leaky scanning model of translation initiation. In this approach termed "stoichiometric expression mRNA polycistrons by eukaryotic ribosomes" (SEMPER), adjacent ORFs are translated at tunable ratios determined their order in sequence and strength initiation sites. We validate up to three fluorescent proteins one plasmid two different cell lines. then use it encode stoichiometrically...
ABSTRACT Applications of mammalian synthetic biology increasingly require the ability to express multiple proteins at user-determined stoichiometries from single, compactly encoded transcripts. Here we present an approach for expressing open reading frames (ORFs) a single transcript, taking advantage leaky scanning model translation initiation. In this method, adjacent ORFs are translated messenger RNA tunable ratios determined by their order in sequence and strength initiation sites. We...
