Protein Coexpression Using FMDV 2A: Effect of “Linker” Residues
1 Jan 2013
Abstract excerpt
Many biomedical applications absolutely require, or are substantially enhanced by, coexpression of multiple proteins from a single vector. Foot-and-mouth disease virus 2A (F2A) and "2A-like" sequences (e.g., Thosea asigna virus 2A; T2A) are used widely for this purpose since multiple proteins can be coexpressed by linking open reading frames (ORFs) to form a single cistron. The activity of F2A "cleavage" may,...
