Design Notes
In addition to having a M293T mutation the TrpE sequence contains a his-tag in order to allow for detection of expression through the use of Western Blotting.
Source
The sequence originated from the MG1655 E. coli strain but carries a M293T point mutation in order to avoid negative feedback inhibition by L-tryptophan (Gu et al., 2012), in addition a hexa his-tag has been added.
