Figure Lengend Snippet: Map of gene constructs. (A) pTRBO-prBChE-KDEL, (B) pTRBO-prBChE, and (C) p35S-P19, 35S: Cauliflower Mosaic Virus (CaMV) promotor, RAmy3DSP : rice alpha-amylase 3D gene signal peptide, Replicase : replicase gene of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), MP : movement protein, BChE : codon optimized sequences for the human butyrylcholinesterase gene. 3XFLAG : specific amino acid codon sequences used for immunodetection and purification of the protein. KDEL : Codons encoding lysine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, leucine, specifying the endoplamsmic retention sequence. P19: P19 gene from Tomato Bushy Stunt Virus (TBSV).
Article Snippet: The 3xFLAG tag sequence (Sigma–Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) was inserted between the RAmy3D signal peptide and hBChE sequences in both cassettes.
