Seed peptide (GGVVIA)

This part encodes Amyloid 𝛽 seed (37-42) which has the ability to bind to A𝛽 plaques inside the brain.

Usage and Biology

A short peptide derived from amyloid beta oligomers (A𝛽 37-42), which is proven to bind amyloid beta plaques inside the brain and stop plaque formation. This peptide showed no cytotoxicity when tested inside hippocampal cell lines, so it will be suitable to use as the targeting domain for A𝛽 plaques inside our system.

Mathematical modeling

Transcription rate and translation rate under T7 promotor

the mathematical modeling was based on our code for the calculation of transcription and translation (you can find it in the code section) beside with the estimated results from the wet lab. 

               Figure 6. this figure shows the results from the transcription and translation code showing the 
                            variation of mRNA and protein concentrations with time.
