Introduction
The most promising approaches to circularize proteins are protein trans-splicing using split inteins [1] such as Npu DnaE [2] and Sortase A-catalyzed cyclization [3].
On DNA level, creating circular proteins equals creating fusion proteins. However, existing protein fusion standards like RFC 23 cause scars.
