Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy NMR is a well-established technique for probing protein structure, dynamics and conformational changes. Taking advantage of the high signal sensitivity and broad chemical shift range of ^(19)F nuclei, ^(19)F NMR has been applied to investigate protein function at atomic resolution. In this report, we extend the unnatural amino acid site-specific incorporation into V. natriegens, an alternate protein expression system. The unnatural amino acid...

Genetically encoded amino acids with tert -butyl and trimethylsilyl groups for site-selective studies of proteins by NMR spectroscopy
Genetically encoded amino acids with tert -butyl and trimethylsilyl groups for site-selective studies of proteins by NMR spectroscopy
Abstract
The amino acids 4-(tert-butyl)phenylalanine (Tbf) and 4-(trimethylsilyl)phenylalanine (TMSf), as well as a partially deuterated version of Tbf (dTbf), were chemically synthesized and site-specifically incorporated into different proteins, using an amber stop codon, suppressor tRNA and the broadband aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase originally evolved for the incorporation of p-cyano-phenylalanine. The 1H-NMR signals of...

Paramagnetic relaxation enhancement of membrane proteins by incorporation of the metal-chelating unnatural amino acid 2-amino-3-(8-hydroxyquinolin-3-yl)propanoic acid (HQA)
Paramagnetic relaxation enhancement of membrane proteins by incorporation of the metal-chelating unnatural amino acid 2-amino-3-(8-hydroxyquinolin-3-yl)propanoic acid (HQA)
Abstract
The use of paramagnetic constraints in protein NMR is an active area of research because of the benefits of long-range distance measurements (>10Â*Ã?). One of the main issues in successful execution is the incorporation of a paramagnetic metal ion into diamagnetic proteins. The most common metal ion tags are relatively long aliphatic chains attached to the side chain of a...

An efficient protocol for incorporation of an unnatural amino acid in perdeuterated recombinant proteins using glucose-based media
An efficient protocol for incorporation of an unnatural amino acid in perdeuterated recombinant proteins using glucose-based media
Abstract The in vivo incorporation of unnatural amino acids into proteins is a well-established technique requiring an orthogonal tRNA/aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase pair specific for the unnatural amino acid that is incorporated at a position encoded by a TAG amber codon. Although this technology provides unique opportunities to engineer protein structures, poor protein yields are usually obtained in deuterated media, hampering its application in the protein NMR...

Site-specific labeling of proteins with NMR-active unnatural amino acids
Site-specific labeling of proteins with NMR-active unnatural amino acids
Abstract A large number of amino acids other than the canonical amino acids can now be easily incorporated in vivo into proteins at genetically encoded positions. The technology requires an orthogonal tRNA/aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase pair specific for the unnatural amino acid that is added to the media while a TAG amber or frame shift codon specifies the incorporation site in the protein to be studied. These unnatural amino acids can be isotopically labeled and provide unique opportunities for site-specific labeling...
