AntigenBoost: enhanced mRNA-based antigen expression through rational amino acid substitution.

Messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines represent a groundbreaking advancement in immunology and public health, particularly highlighted by their role in combating the COVID-19 pandemic. Optimizing mRNA-based antigen expression is a crucial focus in this emerging industry. We have developed a bioinformatics tool named AntigenBoost to address the challenge posed by destabilizing dipeptides that hinder ribosomal translation.
