Design Notes
Serine, like threonine, has a hydroxyl group that contributes to stability by interacting with the aqueous cellular environment. Glycine, again due to its small size, maintains flexibility of the linker.
This linker region also contains a BamHI restriction site (G\GATCC) whose in-frame translation is Gly-Ser. This BamHI site is used to link our two protein domains during assembly of the fusion construct.
Source
This short sequence was added using PCR, with primers having 5'-overhangs corresponding to these nucleotides.
