15. pET28ap was constructed by insertion of an 18-base pair linker between the NcoI and XhoI sites of pET28a (Novagen). Insertion eliminated the XhoI site of pET28a, but created a new XhoI site with flanking translational start and stop signals. This construction encodes minimal N- and C-terminal fusion sequences in polymers 1a and 1b.
