Thrombin Cleavage of GST Fusions

Does anyone know of a way to optimize thrombin cleavage of GST fusion such
that only the five base site is cleaved and not the three base sites.  I
am getting the majority of cleavage at the five base site but also some
annoying cleavage at the three base sites present in my protein.  I have
heard of using heparin in the cleavage reaction, does anyone know of this?

Any help would be appreciated.
