Design Notes

The natural Melan-A sequence has a PstI site at 323bp. This can be remedied by creating a silent mutation to get rid of the PstI site. Because the epitope site is from amino acids 27-35 (81-105bp), it is also possible to shorten the sequence to less than 323 base pairs to exclude the PstI site altogether while retaining protein function as a vaccine candidate.
