A frame-shifted gene, which rescued its function by non-natural start codons and its application in constructing synthetic gene circuits
Abstract Background Frame-shifted genes results in non-functional peptides. Because of this complete loss of function, frame-shifted genes have never been used in constructing synthetic gene circuits. Results Here we report that the function of gene circuits is rescued by a frame-shifted gene, which...
