Influence of structural changes in nontranslated regions and translation initiation site of the in vitro synthesized bovine opsin mRNA on its translational efficiency in the wheat germ cell-free system has been studied. It is shown that level of the opsin synthesis up to 30 micrograms per 1 ml of translational mixture can be attained by optimizing structure of 5'-nontranslated region.
