Design Notes
The design had to be tweaked depending on the endonuclease that was to be fused. Therefore for the complexes formed in this project the sequences differ slightly to accommodate these differences.

Cas9 is part of a defense mechanism in some bacteria to prevent the integration of viral DNA into their genome.
