Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of cellular metabolism by protein lysine acetylation.
Shimin Zhao,Wei Xu,Wenqing Jiang,Wei Yu,Yan Lin,Tengfei Zhang,Jun Yao,Li Zhou,Yaxue Zeng,Hong Li,Yixue Li,Jiong Shi,Wenlin An,Susan M. Hancock,Fuchu He,Lunxiu Qin,Jason W. Chin,Pengyuan Yang,Xian Chen,Xian Chen,Qun-Ying Lei,Yue Xiong,Yue Xiong,Kun-Liang Guan +23 more
TL;DR: It is revealed that lysine acetylation is a prevalent modification in enzymes that catalyze intermediate metabolism, and plays a major role in metabolic regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Method for Genetically Installing Site-Specific Acetylation in Recombinant Histones Defines the Effects of H3 K56 Acetylation
Heinz Neumann,Susan M. Hancock,Ruth Buning,Andrew Routh,Lynda Chapman,Joanna Somers,Tom Owen-Hughes,John van Noort,Daniela Rhodes,Jason W. Chin +9 more
TL;DR: This work reports a general method for the production of homogeneously and site-specifically acetylated recombinant histones by genetically encoding acetyl-lysine and demonstrates that, in contrast to the prevailing dogma, acetylation of H3 K56 does not directly affect the compaction of chromatin and has modest effects on remodeling by SWI/SNF and RSC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expanding the Genetic Code of Yeast for Incorporation of Diverse Unnatural Amino Acids via a Pyrrolysyl-tRNA Synthetase/tRNA Pair
TL;DR: The discovery of a simple system through which variant pyrrolysyl-tRNA synthetase/tRNACUAPyl pairs created in Escherichia coli can be used to expand the genetic code of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficient genetic encoding of phosphoserine and its nonhydrolyzable analog.
Daniel T. Rogerson,Amit Sachdeva,Kaihang Wang,Tamanna Haq,Agne Kazlauskaite,Susan M. Hancock,Nicolas Huguenin-Dezot,Miratul M. K. Muqit,Andrew M. Fry,Richard Bayliss,Jason W. Chin +10 more
TL;DR: This work evolves an orthogonal aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase/tRNACUA pair that directs the efficient incorporation of phosphoserine (pSer (1)) into recombinant proteins in Escherichia coli, and purify proteins bearing biologically relevant phosphorylations that were previously challenging or impossible to access.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic Encoding of Photocaged Cysteine Allows Photoactivation of TEV Protease in Live Mammalian Cells
Duy P. Nguyen,Mohan Mahesh,Simon J. Elsässer,Susan M. Hancock,Chayasith Uttamapinant,Jason W. Chin +5 more
TL;DR: The evolution of the PylRS/tRNACUA pair for genetically encoding photocaged cysteine is demonstrated and the utility of this approach is demonstrated by rapidly activating TEV protease following illumination of single cells.
