Abstract
Methods and vectors for high level expression of genes in bacteria are disclosed. A terminal mRNA sequence from a gene coding for a stable bacterial protein mRNA is ligated to a gene coding for the desired protein adjacent the translation termination codon of the gene. The gene for the desired protein and the terminal mRNA sequence are situated in an expression vector in which the gene is operably linked to a transcription promoter.
