Design Notes
This is as close to the native sequence as the RFC10 permits (Two illegal sites were corrected). It contains the beginning of an ORF coding for the protein tir (translocated intimin receptor - 186 of 1500 bp) starting at "ATGCCTATTGGTA". While translation of downstream gene will occurs regardless of frame, there is higher expression level when ensuring the downstream gene CDS is in frame with the tir fragment.

Source
LEE5 is a topic of research at the host lab, which provided us with the source plasmid pKK-LEE5-gfp that was then cloned to BioBrick RFC10 standard.
