Design Notes
A mutation in CsgA had to be introduced to remove a PstI restriction site. This was done without changing the protein sequence and a codon optimizer was used to ensure high expression in E.coli.
Source
This DNA was synthesized. The design was based on the paper "Strong underwater adhesives made by self-assembling multi-protein nanofibres".[1] 1. C.Zhong, T.Gurry, A.Cheng, J.Downey, Z.Deng, C. Stultz, T.Lu, Nature Nanotechnology, 2014, 9, 858-866.
The CsgA sequence originates from the genomic DNA of E. coli K-12 MG1655 (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/949055).
