Design Notes
The nucleotides encoding for the third and fourth amino acids of the gene are changed to improve the success change of synthesis
Source
The DNA was synthesized. The sequence of CsgA originates from the genomic DNA of E. coli K-12 MG1655 (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/949055). The design was based on the paper "Programmable biofilm-based materials from engineered curli nanofibres"[1]
