Cytotoxic Protein 2Ba (Cyt2Ba)

Design Notes

Cyt2Ba forms cytoplasmic inclusion bodies that do no cause cytotoxic effects to the host bacteria. As a result, encoding a helper protein such as P20, that prevent cytotoxic effects on host cells is unnecessary.

Source

Cyt2Ba originates from Bacillus thuringiensis serovar israelensis ISPC-12. The full-length sequence was sourced from Genbank and synthesized as a cassette (BBa_K4321009) by IDT.
