mCherry_Gene
Description and Biology
Red Fluorescent Protein mCherry is a constitutively monomeric red fluorescent tetrameric protein original from Discosoma sp. (sea anemones). Generally used as a reporter or tag for the visualization of genes as intracellular prove, it presents improved brightness and photostability over similar photoproteins.
How can this part be used
In AlgaGenix, mCherry sequence has been used for MoClo assembly as a B3-B5 piece to create a reporter cassette that can be adapted for position 6 in Level Ms.
Source of this part
Original sequence was obtained from MoClo kit designed by Crozet, et. al (2018).
Design considerations
MoClo kit provides you with sequences with different overhangs so you can choose the one that better fits you design/cloning plan. Sequence contains an intron (CrRbcS2 intron 1) for an intron-mediated enhancement (IME).
