Design Notes

When we chose a linker for our fusion protein,we would have wanted to use -gggsgggs- linker(BBa_K1486003). But we found that such a tandem repeating linker is hard to amplify via PCR because the primer binding site should be unique. Therefore, we improved the original part by change the first GGGS to a carefully selected natural linker from linker database[1] to avoid repeating sequence. Besides, we used the selected natural linker to adjust its length to about 50 Angstrom in total.
