P2A self-cleaving peptide sequence
The self-cleaving 2A peptide is a virally derived coding region that has been utilised by viruses to self-cleave during translation and is likely to have arisen to overcome traditional IRES sequences due to its much smaller coding length (an IRES is usually greater than 500 bases) and allows for a smaller viral genome [1].
