RS/tRNA Additional Notes
In C321.ΔA ,
The RS was tested To verify unique incorporation of sulfotyrosine by the selected synthetase STyrRS, an amber mutant (residue 7) of a C-terminal His6 tag Z-domain protein. The incorporation was confirmed by MALDI-TOF.
In DH10B,
Was utilized to express Hirudin from Hirudo medicinalis with TAG 63, at 10mM sulfotyrosine getting a yeild of 5mg/L compared to WT yield being 12 mg/L with incorpotation also being confirmed by MALDI-TOF
