The length of the linker between spytag and SUP may affect the physical and chemical property of hydrogel.
Source
Inspiring from the self-catalysis of isopeptide bond between Lys and Asp in Streptococcus pyogenes fibronectin-binding protein FbaB, researchers split the catalytic domain and obtain two peptide called Spytag(the short one) and Spycatcher(the long one) which are able to form isopeptide bond with the other without any assistant. SUP is a completely artificial protein from structure calculating to function modifying.
