Genetic encoding of the post-translational modification 2-hydroxyisobutyryl-lysine.
We report the synthesis and genetic encoding of a recently discovered post-translational modification, 2-hydroxyisobutyryl-lysine, to the genetic code of E. coli. The production of homogeneous proteins containing this amino acid will facilitate the study of modification in full-length proteins.
متن کاملLysine carboxylation: unveiling a spontaneous post-translational modification.
The carboxylation of lysine residues is a post-translational modification (PTM) that plays a critical role in the catalytic mechanisms of several important enzymes. It occurs spontaneously under certain physicochemical conditions, but is difficult to detect experimentally. Its full impact is unknown. In this work, the signature microenvironment of lysine-carboxylation sites has been characteriz...
متن کاملPost-translational modification: nature's escape from genetic imprisonment and the basis for dynamic information encoding.
We discuss protein post-translational modification (PTM) from an information processing perspective. PTM at multiple sites on a protein creates a combinatorial explosion in the number of potential 'mod-forms', or global patterns of modification. Distinct mod-forms can elicit distinct downstream responses, so that the overall response depends partly on the effectiveness of a particular mod-form ...
متن کاملGenetic Incorporation of ε-N-2-Hydroxyisobutyryl-lysine into Recombinant Histones.
Here, we report the evolution of an orthogonal amber suppressor pyrrolysyl-tRNA synthetase (PylRS)/tRNACUA(Pyl) pair that genetically encodes the post-translationally modified amino acid, ε-N-2-hydroxyisobutyryl-lysine (HibK), in bacteria and mammalian cells. HibK is a new type of histone mark that is widely distributed in histone proteins. The ability to site-specifically incorporate HibK into...
متن کاملLysine post-translational modifications and the cytoskeleton.
PTMs (post-translational modifications) of lysine residues have proven to be major regulators of gene expression, protein-protein interactions, and protein processing and degradation. This is of particular importance in regulating the cytoskeleton, an enormously complex system of proteins responsible for cell motility, intracellular trafficking, and maintenance of cell form and structure. The c...
