How to prevent protein translation initiation from a specific ATG codon?

03 August 2017 1 235 Report

Dear all,

I would like to express a specific protein isoform from a cDNA. This protein is translated from the same mRNA as a smaller isoform whose initiation starts 80 AA after the one I want to express. Would you have a suggestion to only express the big isoform without mutating the second ATG initiation codon?

Thank you in advance for your answers.
