Design Notes
Created by PCR
The only changes to the sequence from the plasmid kindly provided by The Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Gregory Stephanopoulos was the removal of two PstI restriction sites. This was done by converting CAG to CAA in the second codon of the site.
Source
The melA gene comes from the Rhizobium etli CFN 42 symbiotic plasmid p42d (accession number U80928). The origonal plasmid was created by Christine Nicole S. Santos and Gregory Stephanopoulos (reference: http://aem.asm.org/cgi/content/abstract/74/4/1190)
