High‐level Biosynthetic Substitution of Methionine in Proteins by its Analogs 2‐Aminohexanoic Acid, Selenomethionine, Telluromethionine and Ethionine in Escherichia coli

TL;DR: This work describes the first biosynthetic high-level substitution of methionine by 2-aminohexanoic acid (norleucine), ethionine and telluromethionine in a protein, and confirms the replacement has been confirmed by electrospray mass spectroscopy, amino acid analysis and X-ray structural analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prolegomena to Future Experimental Efforts on Genetic Code Engineering by Expanding Its Amino Acid Repertoire

TL;DR: Important experiments provided solid evidence that the natural protein translation machinery can be reprogrammed to encode genetically a vast number of non-coded (i.e. noncanonical) amino acids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expansion of the genetic code enables design of a novel "gold'' class of green fluorescent proteins

TL;DR: An expansion of efforts by incorporation of an amino substituted variant of tryptophan into the "cyan" GFP mutant, which turned it into a "gold" variant, which possesses a red shift in emission unprecedented for any avFP.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluoroprolines as Tools for Protein Design and Engineering

TL;DR: The preference of the peptidyl-fluoroproline amide bond for the cis or trans conformation in the model compounds N-acetyl-4-fluorschmidt methyl esters fully correlates with the thermostability of the related mutants of the model protein barstar.
