From: Gene design, fusion technology and TEV cleavage conditions influence the purification of oxidized disulphide-rich venom peptides in Escherichia coli

Fig. 2

Comparison of amino acid frequency in Escherichia coli with the frequency of each amino acid in recombinant peptides analysed in this study. Percentage of abundance of each amino acid in E. coli is displayed in blue. In red, frequency of the same amino acid in venom peptide coding genes analysed in this study excluding the sequence encoding the fusion tag. A dramatic increase in the percentage of the amino acid cysteine is observed in venom peptides and this is highlighted by a red arrow
