Design Notes

Because PET is extracellular, we need to secrete TurboPETase into the extracellular space with a signal peptide. Enhancers can enhance signal peptide effects.

Source

The TurboPETase comes from an assay called "Computational redesign of a hydrolase for nearly complete PET depolymerization at industrially relevant high-solids loading". The malE comes from maltose/maltodextrin binding periplasmic protein. The enhancer comes from an assay called "Excretory expression of IsPETase in E. coli by an enhancer of signal peptides and enhanced PET hydrolysis".
