G154G155

G154G155 is a sequence-annotation label encountered in protein sequence data and related literature. It most commonly refers to a pair of glycine residues at positions 154 and 155 in a protein sequence, noted in sequence alignments, structural reports, or commentary on specific regions of a protein.

In one-letter amino acid notation, G stands for glycine. When used to describe a motif, G154G155 can
