Random codon re-encoding induces stable reduction of replicative fitness of Chikungunya virus in primate and mosquito cells.
Large-scale codon re-encoding represents a powerful method of attenuating viruses to generate safe and cost-effective vaccines. In contrast to specific approaches of codon re-encoding which modify genome-scale properties, we evaluated the effects of random codon re-encoding on the re-emerging human...
