Design Notes

Codon optimisation for more efficient expression in E. coli. His-tagged for later purification using immobilised metal affinity chromatography column. Selenocysteine was replaced with cysteine to allow expression in E. coli.



Source

Genomic sequence from Clostridium carboxidivorans, which was codon-optimised for expression in E. coli.
