Introduction

1- Biological background

Coding sequence of the DGAT-1-2 enzyme from Elaeis guineensis codon optimized for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.

It catalyzes the incorporation of the third and last fatty acid at the position sn-3 of the glycerol in the triglyceride synthesis (Kennedy) pathway.

The CDS is standardized to the C. reinhardtii MoClo Kit for the B3-B4 position by adding BbsI sites and the corresponding fusion sites on both ends.
The stop codon was removed to allow for tagging at the C-terminal position, the stop codon being provided by the part on the position B5.

2- Usage in iGEM projects
