Abstract: The present invention relates to DNA constructs comprising a novel TIS sequence. The TIS sequence transcribes into an RNA motif that functions as the protein translation initiation site in an mRNA transcript. The DNA construct may further comprise a nucleic acid sequence encoding signal peptide. Additionally, the DNA constructs may also comprise a nucleic acid sequence encoding a recombinant protein or one or more polypeptide chains thereof. The invention further relates to an expression vector, expression cassette and host cell which comprise said DNA constructs. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a recombinant protein expressed by the host cell as well as a method for expressing the recombinant protein.
