This part was based on the native VVD protein from (''Neurospora crassa''). The VVD36 coding sequence was generated by removing the first 36 amino acid residues and appending a start codon to the start of this truncated sequence. The cystine residue at position 73 (TGC) was then changed to alanine by changing the codon to GCC to yield VVD36-C73A. This sequence was then run through the IDT Codon Optimization Tool, with ''E. coli'' selected as the destination species. The output of this tool was used as the coding sequence for VVD36-C73A-CH4.

Design Notes

This part was based on the native VVD protein from (Neurospora crassa). The VVD36 coding sequence was generated by removing the first 36 amino acid residues and appending a start codon to the start of this truncated sequence. The cystine residue at position 73 (TGC) was then changed to alanine by changing the codon to GCC to yield VVD36-C73A. This sequence was then run through the IDT Codon Optimization Tool, with E. coli selected as the destination species. The output of this tool was used as the coding sequence for VVD36-C73A-CH4.

This part was intended for use in pK18 as a test of our codon harmonisation model. To achieve this, the part was ordered in a gBlock flanked by EcoRI and HindIII sites to enable traditional restriction cloning into pK18. A RBS sequence was added to the gBlock upstream of the part. The RBS sequence used was the consensus Shine-Dalgarno sequence.
