Synthetic approach to stop-codon scanning mutagenesis.
A general combinatorial mutagenesis strategy using common dimethoxytrityl-protected mononucleotide phosphoramidites and a single orthogonally protected trinucleotide phosphoramidite (Fmoc-TAG; Fmoc = 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl) was developed to scan a gene with the TAG amber stop codon with complete synthetic control. In combination with stop-codon suppressors that insert natural (e.g., alanine...
متن کاملAtomic mutagenesis of stop codon nucleotides reveals the chemical prerequisites for release factor-mediated peptide release
Termination of protein synthesis is triggered by the recognition of a stop codon at the ribosomal A site and is mediated by class I release factors (RFs). Whereas in bacteria, RF1 and RF2 promote termination at UAA/UAG and UAA/UGA stop codons, respectively, eukaryotes only depend on one RF (eRF1) to initiate peptide release at all three stop codons. Based on several structural as well as bioche...
متن کاملAnalysis of BR96 binding sites for antigen and anti-idiotype by codon-based scanning mutagenesis.
We performed a scanning mutagenesis study of heavy chain complementarity-determining region (CDR) residues to identify how mutations affected binding of the anti-carcinoma mAb BR96 to Ag, Lewis Y, and to an anti-Id Ab (anti-Id). By ELISA, we demonstrated that the anti-Id bound close to the Ag binding site of BR96, but the anti-Id and Ag sites were not identical. Immunoblot analysis and screenin...
متن کاملA method for multi-codon scanning mutagenesis of proteins based on asymmetric transposons.
Random mutagenesis followed by selection or screening is a commonly used strategy to improve protein function. Despite many available methods for random mutagenesis, nearly all generate mutations at the nucleotide level. An ideal mutagenesis method would allow for the generation of 'codon mutations' to change protein sequence with defined or mixed amino acids of choice. Herein we report a metho...
متن کاملStop codon recognition in ciliates: Euplotes release factor does not respond to reassigned UGA codon.
In eukaryotes, the polypeptide release factor 1 (eRF1) is involved in translation termination at all three stop codons. However, the mechanism for decoding stop codons remains unknown. A direct interaction of eRF1 with the stop codons has been postulated. Recent studies focus on eRF1 from ciliates in which some stop codons are reassigned to sense codons. Using an in vitro assay based on mammali...
