Design Notes

A polyarginine cell penetrating peptide was chosen due to the non-specific nature of the peptide. Available research on cell penetrating peptides for bacterial systems tend to be specific for the peptidoglycan of the bacterial cell wall. Therefore, using these types of peptides would need to be expressed in a different model system as it would likely kill the E.coli we wished to express the capsid in.


Source

The MS2 capsid is originally from the MS2 bacteriphage. Our sequence was synthesized as a g-block
