Design Notes

Codons with a frequency lower than 10% were considered rare and were replaced for optimal expression. As alternative codons, the ones with the highest frequencies were chosen unless it added unwanted restriction sites and was therefore incompatible with iGEM standard.

Split was made at amino acids 158 and 159 of the full length mCherry.

Source

The sequence was taken of Part:BBa_K1093016 from the iGEM registry and then codon optimized with SnapGene.
