Design Notes
The start and stop codon of the CUP1 genomic sequences were removed in order to fuse the proteins together with the linker, Aga2 and V5.
Source
The CUP1 sequence is the genomic sequence of the copper metallotionein 1 protein. After having linked two copies with a linker in between, the full sequence was codon optimized by the software of the company that synthetized the sequence in order to avoid loops during syntethis. The CUP1-linker-CUP1 sequence was then inserted in the pCTcon2_V5 plasmid that was already containing Aga2, V5 tag and the Gal1 promoter by the Gibson assembly method.
