Design Notes
1. The sequence of K.marxianus alpha-mating factor secretion signal is derived from the genomic sequence of K.marxianus strain DMKU3-1042 (Genbank accesion number QGN17207.1)[1].
2. The Kex2 cleavage site (KR-EA) is highly-conserved between P.pastoris and K.marxianus, but S.cerevisiae and P.pastoris share an EAEA sequence[2], whilst K.marxianus has an EASA sequence. Other variations in the signal sequence are also emergent, for instance, the signal peptidase cleavage site, with a sequence of LA-AP in P.pastoris and IA-AP in K.marxianus.
