Design Notes
Since we use the restriction enzyme site to do the ligation, we should pay attention to the sequence of ChR2-YFP, avoiding using the restriction site exits in it.
Source
ChR2 is a channelrhodopsin in green algae, but we didn't get it directly from the algae. Instead, we get ChR2 from some plamids by PCR.
