The emergence of robust methods to expand the genetic code allows incorporation of non-canonical amino acids into the polypeptide chain of proteins, thus making it possible to introduce unnatural chemical functionalities in enzymes. In this Perspective, we show how this powerful methodology is used to...
The present disclosure provides methods for incorporating at least one non-natural amino acid into a polypeptide using a cell-free protein synthesis which includes a cell-free extract and is deficient in endogenous tRNA. The methods include providing the synthesis system with at least one non-...

This reaction is called charging, as the high-energy ester bond between the amino acid and the tRNA activates the amino acid, preparing it to form a peptide bond with an amino group in the growing polypeptide chain. Each of the 20 aa-tRNA synthetases couples a particular amin...
Insulin is an example of a protein with cystine crosslinking. Cys is useful to detoxify the body from harmful toxins.11,150 Glutamic acid (Glu or E) ((2S)-2-aminopentanedioic acid) is a polar, amino acid with the formula HOOCCH(NH2)CH2CH2COOH. It has an acidic side chain. Glutamate...

The sequence and the number of amino acids ultimately determine the protein’s shape, size, and function. Each amino acid is attached to another amino acid by a covalent bond, known as a peptide bond, which is formed by a dehydration reaction. The carboxyl group of one amino acid and the...
