Design Notes

This part is human-codon optimized. We found a BsaI site in the middle of mKate Exon 2, so we use site-directed mutagenesis to change the base pair at position 1450 from a G to an A. We also mutated the HBG Intron 2 at position 888 from a C to an A because the paper we were referencing had mutated the HBG intron in the same way.

Source

The human beta globin introns came from the genome of HEK cells, and mKate from jellyfish.
