Description
This sequence contains the Hevea brasiliensis??HRT1??mRNA for cis-prenyltransferase, complete cds. The sequence has been codon optimized for expression in E. coli. HRT1 is a cis-prenyltransferase and is responsible for initialization and elongation of polyisoprene polymers. It takes in IPP or DMAPP and polymerizes it to a polyisoprene chain.
Notes
This sequence has been codon optimized for expression in E. coli.
No other modifications have been made to the sequence.
