Abstract:
Recombinant protein production in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells is a fundamental technology for both research and industry. Achieving efficient protein synthesis is key to accelerating the discovery, characterization, and practical application of proteins. This review focuses on recent advances in recombinant protein production and strategies for more efficient protein production, especially using Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Additionally, this review summarizes the development of various functional peptide tags that can be employed for protein production, modification, and purification, including translation-enhancing peptide tags developed by our research group.

RNA is the Missing Link Between DNA and Proteins
In the early 1900s, scientists discovered that DNA stores all the information needed for cellular functions and that proteins perform most of these functions. However, the mechanisms of converting genetic information into functional proteins remained unknown for many years. Initially, it was believed that a single gene is...
