http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1432-1033.1990.tb19300.x/full This links to the amino acid sequence, which we then entered into IDT Codon Optimizer to find the optimal corresponding DNA sequence in E. coli.
This part codes for AFP, an antifungal protein produced naturally by Aspergillus giganteus, a mold species in the fungi kingdom. It appears to be involved in the inhibition of chitin synthesis, chitin being a key protein in the cell walls of fungi. It may also have other anti-fungal functions, but more research is necessary to determine its exact mode of action.

The pre-protein is 94 amino acids long, but is cleaved before secretion into a 51 amino acid peptide that is now active. This part is for the 51 amino acid peptide plus a start codon. We have another part for the immature 94 amino acid peptide.
