A critical bridge during this transition would have been the ‘adapter’ molecules that matched individual codons with specific amino acids. While tRNAs, charged by aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases, perform the role of adapter molecules today, self-aminoacylating ribozymes may have been the RNA World ...
Abstract. Despite the degeneracy of the genetic code, whereby different codons encode the same amino acid, alternative codons and amino acids are utilized
Synonymous codons translate into chemically identical amino acids. Once considered inconsequential to the formation of the protein product, there is evidence to suggest that codon usage affects co-translational protein folding and the final structure of the expressed protein. Here we develop a method fo...
Systems of ribozymes could form the basis for important aspects of prebiotic evolution, such as the early stages of the genetic code of protein translation, a ‘major evolutionary transition’11. In modern biology, the mapping of specific codons to their cognate amino acids is assured through the...
Among them, incorporation of noncanonical amino acids (ncAAs) via genetic code expansion (GCE) is perhaps one of the best because the conjugation site can be precisely controlled with bioorthogonal chemistry that is exclusive to natural protein building blocks. The superiority of this method has rec...

These methods rely on the reassignment of codons to a given UAA and use bacterial strains auxotrophic for the structural-related canonical amino acid. Such strains cannot biosynthesize the native amino acids and require uptake from the growth media (UAAs). For instance, this strategy has been ...
How many codons specify the twenty types of amino acids? How are nucleotides related to amino acids? How do mRNA and tRNA work together during protein synthesis? Problem 1. Convert the DNA into a mRNA. Decode the mRNA into a sequence of amino acids. Then convert the sequence into...
Metabolic labeling of proteins with non-canonical amino acids (ncAAs) provides unique bioorthogonal chemical groups during de novo synthesis by taking advantage of both endogenous and heterologous protein synthesis machineries. Labeled proteins can then
