Design Notes

All designs of this construct were based on its homology with HIV. This part was codon optimized for use in <i E.coli </i>

Source

This part is a theoretical construct. The sequence is derived from the Arc protein found in rat and was chosen based on its homology with HIV. https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q63053
