Depositor Comments

Ratiometric pHLuorin2 sequence synthesized by Genscript, original sequence from https://www.scirp.org/journal/paperinformation.aspx?paperid=5043

Targeting to the MGAT2-positive compartment was achieved by inserting synthetic truncated MGAT2 (residues 1-89 of Uniprot Q10469, Genscript)

The starting codon of RpHLuorin2 was removed and a flexible GGSGGS linker was added between the two protein fragments.
