Hi Alexandra,

Yes, I think it's far more likely to be a repeating 29-amino acid peptide, or
something (I'm trying to sound knowedgable here) rather than a cipher.....

Nothing other than that it would be somewhat inelegant to just dump a bunch
of codons into the source code and leave it at that. Wishful thinking,
maybe!?

Is the sequence long enough to actually code for a protein? Maybe job
applicants are supposed to name the protein...
