Part Improvement:

We have worked to create an improved Glycine serine linker in part BBa_K1537017 in our new part BBa_K3244026

to adapt for our bispecific extracellular domain which should carry 2 scFv targeting 2 different antigens. This part has been modified through codon optimization -which has represented an issue for our fragment DNA synthesis due to the need for repetition of linker sequence between 4 different chains of 2 scFvs- and amino acid sequence length editing t(GGGGS)5 to act as an inter-chain linker between the 2 scFv for enhanced production and stability of the bispecific scFv. Significant difference between GSSS_ BBa_K1537017 engineered and GSSS_BBa_K3244026 T-cells(p<0.05), higher expression levels were observed inGSSS_BBa_K3244026 group.
