Advantages of having several models:<o:p></o:p>
In
our secretion system, we are using two genes with different sizes as
our target
secretion genes, GFP being short in length and Luciferase being
comparably long
would test our secretion system and its ability to secrete small and
large
proteins.
Testing multiple different combinations;
Signal
Sequence alone, Signal Sequence plus ompA/INPNC and ompA/INPNC alone,
would
help us find the best combination for our secretion system based on
their
secretion ability and rank them from strongest to weakest in strength
(in this
specific system).

name="different_genes"></a>Why
test different genes in our secretion system?<o:p></o:p> There
is wide range of genes present in our environment. Therefore, it is
important
to measure our secretion system’s ability to secrete genes of various
sizes.
