Poly(Arginine-Serine) Protein

This part contains the DNA sequence of a protein of our own design. We first repeated the Arginine-Serine amino acid pair 6 times to obtain a sequence of 12 amino acids. This sequence was then repeated a total of 36 times. Between these repeats no extra amino acids were added. The idea behind this protein was to provide ourselves with a high concentration of amino acids with amide groups which we could then use to provide CEST contrast in an MRI. The protein can be placed behind a promoter of your choice and expressed.
