Legend

-----T5 promoter, lac operon

The T5 viral promoter allows for mass production of the protein. The lac operon allows transcription to be regulated using IPTG.

----- translational start codon

----- 6x histidine epitope tag

The tag will enable us to visulaize the transcribed protein using antibodies.

----- multiple cloning sites (MCS)

----- PCR cloning site

^ location of restriction enzyme cut

The three restriction sites identified will be used to identify the orientation of the five IDH genes.
For more information on the experiment that will determine the orientation of the insert: Determining Orientation

length: 3504 bp
