Description: Base pairs: 1425

Usage and Biology: In order to be able to quantify how much DUX4-DBD protein would be produced in cells upon transfection, we constructed a coding sequence consisting of an mNeonGreen (mNG) sequence followed by a Peptide 2A (P2A) linker upstream of the DUX4-DBD. The P2A linker causes ribosomal “skipping” during translation, and this effectively separates the mNG and DUX4-DBD proteins. In designing the coding sequence in this way, we enabled quantification of DUX4-DBD without directly attaching another large protein to it.
