Hi everyone,

I want to study the translation efficiency of multiple version of the same protein coded by different genotypes.

To do so I need to conserve the translation initiation context -> hence no N-ter tag.

And I also need to conserve the end because it overlaps with the start of another ORF -> hence no C-ter tag.

I choose to put the tag in an hydropylic loop between two hydrophobic transmembrane domains.

I want the least possible interference with folding and function of the protein, so what tag wouyld you recomand ?

The one with least hydrophobic amino acid i guess ?

Could a 3xFLAG be ok ?

Thanks for the help !

Philippe.
