Hi all,
I have a squence like this: GCC GCC ACC ATG G; it contains a Kozak
consus element in order to ensure efficient translation.
I'd like to introduce a NdeI restriction site (catatg).
What might be the better solution:
a) mutating the sequnce to GCC GCC cat ATG G (mutations are lower
case)
b) inserting two bases; the sequence then would be GCC GCC ACC at ATG
G
will either of the two ways destroy the effect of the Kozak element?
Thaks for all input!
