Design Notes
Following purification of the encapsulin-AMP protein,, lowering the pH of the protein environment triggers disassembly of the encapsulin nanocompartment, allowing a TEV protease site to be accessed and ultimately the AMP is removed from the structure

Encapsulins are bacterial organelle-like nanocompartments whose function is dictated by whatever its cargo is.
