Description
This sequence codes for a cis-prenyltransferase responsible for polymerization of IPP and DMAPP into polyisoprene compounds. This sequence is from the rubber tree, Hevea brasiliensis
Notes
This sequence has been acquired from H. brasiliensis and codon optimized for transfection into E. coli.
No other modifications have been made to the sequence.
