RS/tRNA Additional Notes
Using 0.4 mM Anap yielded hSOD(33) at 1.2 mg/L, and shown by MS to be high fidelity. Also using 0.4 mM Anap, incorporated into glutamine binding protein(QBP) at position Asn160, confirmed by ESI-MS.
2013 foundational paper used both 0.5 mM and 0.01 mM Anap for incorporation into test proteins in HEK293, CHO and Hela cells.
