> What happens if a sub-sequence of peptide matches with one of our own's body proteins and our immune system starts building antibody against it?
The peptide sequences are listed on the whitepaper, so it’s a matter of BLASTing[1] them against the human proteome to check for possible matches. I just did it and there doesn’t seem to be any statistically significant hit.
Ok great to know. But my intention here is to convey that it is dangerous to biohacking a molecule/compound that a user is going to put in his/her body. The peptides after synthesis needs to be rigorously tested(QC/QA) for the desired sequences and to make sure the absence of any undesired epiotopes mixed.
