CpG-Recoding in Zika Virus Genome Causes Host-Age-Dependent Attenuation of Infection With Protection Against Lethal Heterologous Challenge in Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Experimental increase of CpG dinucleotides in an RNA virus genome impairs infection providing a promising approach for vaccine development. While CpG recoding is an emerging and promising vaccine approach, little is known about infection phenotypes ...

Limits of variation, specific infectivity, and genome packaging of massively recoded poliovirus genomes [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2017
Significance We constructed viable poliovirus (PV) variants carrying up to 2,104 synonymous mutations in the ORF. We studied proliferation phenotypes, particularly the specific infectivity ( si ) that defines the probability of a single virion to initiate a single cell infection.

Large-scale recoding of an arbovirus genome to rebalance its insect versus mammalian preference [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2015
Significance Arboviruses (arthropod-borne viruses), a large group of RNA viruses, replicate in insects that transmit them to mammals, their second host. Insects and mammals have evolved different protein encoding strategies (codon pair bias); hence, arboviruses must delicately balance their encodings between two phyla.

Synthetic genome recoding: new genetic codes for new features.

open access: yes, 2020
Full genome recoding, or rewriting codon meaning, through chemical synthesis of entire bacterial chromosomes has become feasible in the past several years.

ReScribe: An Unrestrained Tool Combining Multiplex Recombineering and Minimal-PAM ScCas9 for Genome Recoding Pseudomonas putida

open access: yes, 2021
Genome recoding enables incorporating new functions into the DNA of microorganisms. By reassigning codons to noncanonical amino acids, the generation of new-to-nature proteins offers countless opportunities for bioproduction and biocontainment in ...

Synthesis of Recoded Bacterial Genomes toward Bespoke Biocatalysis [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Biotechnology, 2019
Ongoing efforts in synthetic biology aim at constructing (micro)organisms with (pre)defined properties. A recent breakthrough is the chemical synthesis of a recoded Escherichia coli genome by Fredens et al. (Nature, 2019). Besides the conceptual and technological tour de force, the consequences of this unprecedented effort for whole-cell biocatalysis ...

A recombination-resistant genome for live attenuated and stable PEDV vaccines by engineering the transcriptional regulatory sequences

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2023
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) is a deadly coronavirus for neonatal piglets and no effective vaccines are available. Transcriptional regulatory sequences (TRSs) are critical in regulating coronavirus discontinuous transcription.

CpG dinucleotide enrichment in the influenza A virus genome as a live attenuated vaccine development strategy

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
Synonymous recoding of RNA virus genomes is a promising approach for generating attenuated viruses to use as vaccines. Problematically, recoding typically hinders virus growth, but this may be rectified using CpG dinucleotide enrichment.

Engineering a genomically recoded organism with one stop codon. [PDF]

open access: yesNature
The genetic code is conserved across all domains of life, yet exceptions have revealed variations in codon assignments and associated translation factors1-3. Inspired by this natural malleability, synthetic approaches have demonstrated whole-genome replacement of synonymous codons to construct genomically recoded organisms (GROs)4,5 with alternative ...
