Linker dna

Thank you. Interesting argument on the extra-Kozak and start codon... So is it even better to leave a few extra amino acids as for a linker in a fusion protein? First I thought the best is if the reporter sequence and "our protein" is right next to each other. It makes sense though ...

if you leave the kozak sequence it shouldn't matter, you would just end up with a longer linker. well it all depends: some proteins may require the N- or C- terminus to be able to move around in order to fold right. However, you're probably best off starting with 5-10. ...

Basically, if you know only part of your sequence and have only one primer, you will need to ligate a linker or adaptor (for the second primer) in order to isolate unknown sequence. It is greatly used in isolation of the insertion flanking sequences in mutants.

Only latex nanoparticles in which the NTI derivative was linked through the phenol group were useful for isolating the recombinant ...
