         <p> The second step in the SubtiTree optimization matches with the binding ability of our bacterium. Thus, we design a chimeric protein (BBa_K1364005) able to make a bridge between bacterial peptidoglycan and fungal chitin, the main component of the pathogen’s cell wall. According to the Imperial College of London 2010 iGEM team, we use CWB domain of LytC protein to bind our chimeric protein to Bacillus subtilis cell wall. On the other side of our protein, we add acfragment of  GbpA from Vibrio Cholerae, which is known to recognise N-Acetyl Glucosamine oligosaccharides called chitin.</p>

<br>- Anchor section: the CWB (Cell Wall Binding) is a LytC domain put on 5' of our chimeric protein gene. As previously used by the Imperial College of London 2010 iGEM team, we retain the first 318 bp. We can note the presence of the signal peptide at the beginning from 1 to 24 bp.

<br>- Chitin Binding Domain (CBD) section:  the Domain 4 of GbpA from Vibrio Cholerae is able to bind to N-Acetyl Glucosamine oligosacchararides. Also, the last base pairs in 3' of our gene is composed by a part of the GbpA sequence (from 423 to 484 bp).
