The first module involves engineering E. coli to synthesise the protein drug of interest to sufficient quantities. Once accomplished, activation of module two initiates the encapsulation phase, in which E. coli coats itself in a protective layer of colanic acid to form the E.ncapsulator. This protective capsule is what shields the protein drug against the harsh acidic environment of the stomach. The third module, genome deletion, is composed of a ‘suicide trigger’ mechanism that destroys the genetic material of the bacteria. Finally, once in the small intestine, the capsule will be naturally degraded by enzymes present, thereby releasing the designed biopharmaceutical to the gut where it can carry out its intended function. |
