Unnatural amino acid mutagenesis of green fluorescent protein.
Unnatural amino acid mutagenesis has been used to selectively substitute tyrosine 66 of green fluorescent protein (GFP) with five novel amino acids: p-amino-L-phenylalanine, p-methoxy-L-phenylalanine, p-iodo-L-phenylalanine, p-bromo-L-phenylalanine, and L-3-(2-naphthyl)alanine. The absorbance and emission maxima of the resulting mutant GFPs span the range from 375 to 435 nm and 428 to 498 nm, r...
متن کاملIn vivo photocrosslinking with unnatural amino Acid mutagenesis.
An emerging challenge for proteomics is the enumeration of the interactions between any given protein and all other molecules in a cell. The yeast two-hybrid system 2] and protein arrays have facilitated the discovery of protein ±protein interactions. However, these methods, whether in vivo or in vitro, largely consider protein ±protein interactions in a pairwise, albeit parallel fashion. It is...
متن کاملSwitching DNA-binding specificity by unnatural amino acid substitution
The specificity of protein-nucleic acid recognition is believed to originate largely from hydrogen bonding between protein polar atoms, primarily side-chain and polar atoms of nucleic acid bases. One way to design new nucleic acid binding proteins of novel specificity is by structure-guided alterations of the hydrogen bonding patterns of a nucleic acid-protein complex. We have used cI repressor...
متن کاملEnhancing the efficiency and regioselectivity of P450 oxidation catalysts by unnatural amino acid mutagenesis.
The development of effective strategies for modulating the reactivity and selectivity of cytochrome P450 enzymes represents a key step toward expediting the use of these biocatalysts for synthetic applications. We have investigated the potential of unnatural amino acid mutagenesis to aid efforts in this direction. Four unnatural amino acids with diverse aromatic side chains were incorporated at...
متن کاملTyrosine residues that control binding and gating in the 5-hydroxytryptamine3 receptor revealed by unnatural amino acid mutagenesis.
The mechanism by which agonist binding triggers pore opening in ligand-gated ion channels is poorly understood. Here, we used unnatural amino acid mutagenesis to introduce subtle changes to the side chains of tyrosine residues (Tyr141, Tyr143, Tyr153, and Tyr234), which dominate the 5-HT3 receptor binding site. Heterologous expression in oocytes, combined with radioligand binding data and a mod...
