Design Notes

We found the sequences of this tetracycline resistance protein in UniProt Protein Database. According to the codon bias in Escherichia coli, we transform the protein sequence into the gene sequence and had it commercially synthesized. In order to avoid illegal restriction sites, we conduct three synonymous mutations in our sequence.

TetX gene is initially found in the transposons Tn4351 and Tn4400 in the anaerobe Bacteroides fragilis
