Has anyone tried that consensus to see if it actually works? IIRC the consensus RBS for E.coli actually doesn't work, theory is that it's too strong and won't release the sigma-factor!

Yeah they won't synthesize it either. Too many A's, they say. I had too much of it in enhancer, Kozak and terminatorAlso they don't like to synthesize anything with a restriction site like BsaI. I guess they use it in their synthesis process or end processing.I thought I optimized all there is to optimize all 4 kb and then this. Next step, working with the company and its advisers.

The most optimal consensus sequence for EUKARYOTIC expression in plants is:
AAA AAA AAA ACA
upstream to the ATG and then a G at the +1 position. Making primers amplify this into a CDS seems to be a horrid idea. In theory, the ton of adenines will make for one difficult pcr attempt.
What would you suggest the best method for cloning this particular sequence into a CDS?
One method may be two shorter (adenine wise) primers that overlap and amplify the cds in two steps. That would leave twice the chance for error not to mention increase cost. The other method is synthesis but lets be honest, synthetic biology is great if you have money. I, like most DIY Biologists, have grossly insufficient funds for synthesizing every damn gene with said Kozak or every promoter with a terminal kozak motif.
Biobricks are great but scars and the burden of making nonBB parts into BB is heavy.
Any ideas are welcome. I know I asked this before in a more broader context but this time there is a more specific issue. Thanks in advance!
