- | <p style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-word> This enzyme was first detected in Chromobacterium sp. We introduced it in a plasmid backbone with chloramphenicol resistance. Its length is of 1871 nucleotides and its codons were optimized in order to use it on E.coli, it already included a stop codon, it was also modified by the addition of a glycosilation site and the peptide signal of human cathepsin. | + | <p style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-word;"> This enzyme was first detected in Chromobacterium sp.
