ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to nucleic acids encoding a synthetic transmembrane region as well as to membrane associated proteins containing these synthetic transmembrane regions. The design of the synthetic transmembrane region allows various properties of a protein, such as its level of expression, and relative response to ligand binding to be tailored as required for a specific purpose.
