Description
This is an amino acid sequence taken from Mycobacterium tuberculosis to produce the protein MPT64. The amino acid sequence has been changed to be E.coli-favorable, and restriction enzyme sites for EcoRI, PstI, SpeI, and XbaI have been removed. This sequence can be used as a means to produce protein MPT64 without culturing M. tuberculosis, and therefore can be used as a means to test for the presence of M. tuberculosis without the risk of the bacteria being in the lab.
Notes
The amino acid sequence has been changed to be E.coli-favorable, and the restriction enzyme sites for EcoRI, PstI, SpeI, and XbaI have been removed.
Source
original amino acid sequence was taken from M. tuberculosis.
