UGA Read-Through Artifacts—When Popular Gene Expression Systems Need a pATCH

pET and similar vectors are widely used for efficient gene expression in Escherichia coli and subsequent protein purification, often by means of a C-terminal histidine (His) tag. We found that the TGA translation termination signal following the His-tag sequence in pET constructs gives rise to a sig...
