Depositor Comments

The 35-bp human VEGF HRE sequence is: CCACAGTGCATACGTGGGCTCCAACAGGTCCTCTT

The d2EGFP fragment was amplified from a Clontech (Palo Alto, CA) vector and encodes a destabilized red- shifted variant of wild-type GFP with an excitation maximum of 488 nm, an emission maximum of 507 nm, and a half-life of approximately 2 hours.
