Design Notes

The primary concern was Dueber MoClo and GoldenGate compatibility. These sequences were designed to be robustly assembled and integrated into the S. cerevisiae genome. Additionally, the number of C120op repeats is variable throughout E. litoralis; 5 was selected for its high activity, as described by Motta-Mena et al.

The C120op EL222-binding sequence was first identified in E. litoralis by Giomar Rivera-Cancel, Laura B. Motta-Mena, and Kevin H. Gardner (Biochemistry 2012, doi: 10.1021/bi301306t). mRuby2 is derived from Entacmaea quadricolor, best described by Aj et al. (Nature Methods 2012, doi: 10.1038/nmeth.2171).
