Description
Coding sequence for 17.5 protein in T7 phage. The 17.5 protein functions as a holin: in gram-negative bacteria, the holin degrades the inner peptidoglycan cell wall. For complete lysis to occur, an endolysin protein is also required (in T7 phage, this is the 3.5 protein).
This sequence should be preceded by a promoter.
Notes
Note: this sequence begins with a GTG start codon when expressed naturally; in our design, we opted to change the start codon to ATG to optimize for E. coli
