Design Notes

In order for DB3DB3 to be successfully secreted extracellularly, it needed to be distinguishable from SLPmod by being larger than it was. We therefore repeated the sequence 3 times and introduced cleavege sites for pancreatic elastase in between the repeats, by adding an alanine. Pancreatic elastase was chosen as a peptidase since it naturally occurs in the colon, which would be the target organ of our potential future implementation.

Codons were chosen manually to reduce the sequence repeats in the nucleotide sequence but still mainly use the most common codons for L. reuteri, our intended chassi.
