Abstrakt: | Multiple noncanonical amino acids can be installed into proteins in E. coli using mutually orthogonal aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase and tRNA pairs. Here we describe a protocol for simultaneously installing three distinct noncanonical amino acids into proteins for site-specific bioconjugation at three sites. This method relies on an engineered, UAU-suppressing, initiator tRNA, which is aminoacylated with a noncanonical amino acid by Methanocaldococcus jannaschii tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase. Using this initiator tRNA/aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase pair, together with the pyrrolysyl-tRNA synthetase/tRNA Pyl pairs from Methanosarcina mazei and Ca. Methanomethylophilus alvus, three noncanonical amino acids can be installed into proteins in response to the UAU, UAG, and UAA codons. (© 2023.
