Description
This is the mid-sized linker of the three fusion protein linkers created by the Penn State 2011 iGEM team. It encodes for the six amino acids GGSGGS and has a prefix and suffix compatible with assembly standard 25. It is used in one of the variants of our Fast-Fusion protein reporter system.
Notes
This part contains the AgeI and NgoMIV sites as part of it's prefix/suffix that allows it to be used in standard 25 assembly.
This part was synthesized through PCR oligo synthesis methods using the following primers:

Source
The inspiration for this part came from the linker used in the 2010 Imperial College London iGEM team GFP-Xyle fusion part: BBa_K316007
