Nicotiana Benthamiana r-(Dipeptide-98 s-Streptococcus sp. Polypeptide-1 sh-Polypeptide-96 Oligopeptide-313 sh-Oligopeptide-4 Tetrapeptide-120) is a single chain recombinant peptide produced by Nicotiana benthamiana after transformation with either a transient expression system or transgenesis (stable insertion of a copy of the synthetic gene into its DNA). The starting gene is synthesized by the fusion of the genes from Dipeptide-98, s-Streptococcus sp. Polypeptide-1, sh-Polypeptide-96, Oligopeptide-313, sh-Oligopeptide-4, and Tetrapeptide-120. The peptide contains 721 amino acids which may contain disulfide bonds and/or glycosylation.
