Introduction

The most promising approaches to circularize proteins are protein trans-splicing using split inteins [[#References[1]]] such as Npu DnaE [[#References[2]]] and Sortase A-catalyzed cyclization [[#References[3]]].


On DNA level, creating circular proteins equals creating fusion proteins. However, existing protein fusion standards like RFC 23 cause scars.
