linker-Streptavidin-His (tetrameric)

This is an improved version of Part:BBa_K283010, which encodes for the core Streptavidin protein of Streptomyces avidinii. The start codon was replaced by a GSTGS linker [1], a His-tag was added to the C-terminus and a BamHI site was removed.

Streptavidin tetramers have a very high affinity to biotin and this interaction is often used in biotechnology for purification of nucleic acids and proteins. Compared to the wildtype sequence, the core protein lacks an N-terminal signal peptide and it has also been further truncated at both termini to improve solubility.[2]
