Abstract

Here, we report that the fluorescent amino acid, 3-(6-acetylnaphthalen-2-ylamino)-2-aminopropanoic acid (Anap), can be genetically incorporated into proteins in yeast with excellent selectivity and efficiency by means of an orthogonal tRNA/aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase pair. This small, environmentally sensitive fluorophore was site-specifically incorporated into Escherichia coli glutamine binding protein and used to directly probe local structural changes caused by ligand binding. The small size of Anap and the ability to introduce it by simple mutagenesis at defined sites in the proteome make it a useful local probe of protein structure, molecular interactions, protein folding, and localization.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
