RS/tRNA Additional Notes
NpOH-RS1 incorporated 2-amino-3-(6-hydroxy 2-naphthyl)-propanoic acid(NpOH) into target protein with high fidelity via substitution of the Lys7 site, yielding 7mg/L of Z-domain mutant. These results were confirmed by ESI-MS and SDS-page results.
Another RS mutant was acquired which yielded similar results, however it was not reported to do anything substantially different from NpOH-RS1, and is mentioned here instead of receiving its own page. The mutant NpOH-RS2 had the mutations Y32E, L65 V, K90E, I159A, H160W, Y161G, L162Q, A167I, and D286R.
