Design Notes

The sequence of WAMP1b is preceded by a 6x His-Tag to facilitate its purification by immobilized metal affinity chromatography. The sequence for Erv1p consists in a truncated version that lacks the first 72 amino acids of the complete sequence. It has been proved that this version shows similar or even improved sulfhydryl oxidase activity.


Source

The composite part was designed using the following parts previously added to the Registry: BBa_R0010, BBa_B0034, and BBa_B0015. The amino acid sequence for WAMP1b was retrieved from Odintsova et al., 2009. The full amino acid sequence for Erv1p was reported by Lisowsky (1996). The truncated version was retrieved from Lee et al. (2000).
