Design Notes

This composite part consists of a strong 5' UTR Sequence, followed by a signal peptide for secretion from E.coli, the non-glycolated AFP 5-mer, and finally a strong termination sequence. The 5' UTR and termination sequences are very strong because we want high transcription and only transcription of the region we coded before the termination sequence. The signal peptide is N-terminal and is native to E.coli.
