LL-37 has shown effect in vivo in mice. Females naturally cycling to estrous phase failed to become pregnant when in injected with LL-37 and sperm. LL-37 also showed in vitro effect on human sperm which makes it a very good potential peptide for contraception. [2]

LaM4 is used as a control [3]. It is an antibody against RFP & mcherry. This control allow us to check the efficiency of the promoter and the signal peptid.

The Montpellier iGEM team 2018 designed a construction that produce and secrete LaM4, a nanobody against RFP and mcherry in Lactobacillus jensenii (more information). For that, we used the promoter RpsU, a L.jensenii specific strong promoter [1]. The signal peptid is L. jensenii specific [2]. Figure 1 illustrates the detailed design.

LaM4 is used as a control [3]. It is an antibody against RFP & mcherry. This control allow us to check the efficiency of the promoter and the signal peptid.
