Design Notes
We used Modular Cloning Golden Gate Type II Assembly, so we had to consider how parts came together. We also used the natural secretion tag given in the part so we could use it to test chemokine secretion success by HEKs. See more on the MIT iGEM 2019 wiki: <a href=https://2019.igem.org/Team:MIT>.

This part was ordered from IDT/Twist Biosciences as a gBlock and then assembled into a plasmid. The sequence was taken from this site: <a href: https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P10145> and then codon-optimized using IDT's codon optimization tool. The Flag tag was a part in the Weiss lab database.
