Design Notes
Codon optimization for Glycine max (soybean) is a unique design consideration for all of CU Boulder’s coding sequences including the cytosolic region of T5αOH. The membrane associated region of the protein was left unchanged. Codon optimization is the intentional use of specific codons for specific amino acids, dependent on what tRNAs are most abundant in the organism. While codon optimization is a common consideration for synthetic biologists, our sequences are unique for iGEM because they are intended for expression in soybeans.
Source
This T5αOH, or CYP725A-4 sequence originates from Taxus baccata2. All of our DNA fragments are obtained via de novo synthesis by iGEM sponsors Twist Bioscience and Integrated DNA technologies.
