Progress toward the evolution of an organism with an expanded genetic code.

Several significant steps have been completed toward a general method for the site-specific incorporation of unnatural amino acids into proteins in vivo. An "orthogonal" suppressor tRNA was derived from Saccharomyces cerevisiae tRNA2Gln. This yeast orthogonal tRNA is not a substrate in vitro or in vivo for any Escherichia coli aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase, including E. coli glutaminyl-tRNA synthet...

Protein evolution with an expanded genetic code.

We have devised a phage display system in which an expanded genetic code is available for directed evolution. This system allows selection to yield proteins containing unnatural amino acids should such sequences functionally outperform ones containing only the 20 canonical amino acids. We have optimized this system for use with several unnatural amino acids and provide a demonstration of its ut...

An expanded genetic code with a functional quadruplet codon.

With few exceptions the genetic codes of all known organisms encode the same 20 amino acids, yet all that is required to add a new building block are a unique tRNA/aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase pair, a source of the amino acid, and a unique codon that specifies the amino acid. For example, the amber nonsense codon, TAG, together with orthogonal Methanococcus jannaschii or Escherichia coli tRNA/synt...

Role of tRNA Orthogonality in an Expanded Genetic Code

We found that Methanocaldococcus jannaschii DSM2661 tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase (Mj E9RS), specifically evolved to charge its cognate tRNA with the unnatural amino acid p-acetylphenylalanine (pAcF) in E. coli, misaminoacylates the endogenous E. coli prolyl-tRNAs with pAcF at a low level (0.5% per proline frequency) in both the absence or presence of its co-evolved amber suppressor tRNA (M. jannasch...
