M-Fluorotyrosine (m-Fluoro-DL-tyrosine) may be substituted for tyrosine in the biosynthesis of proteins such as β-galactosidases (Escherichia coli), bacteriorhodopsin and intestinal microvillar enzymes, eg. aminopeptidase N, to study the effect of halogenated tryosines on the proteins properties.

Fluorine NMR is a useful tool to probe protein folding, conformation and local topology owing to the sensitivity of the chemical shift to the local electrostatic environment. As an example we make use of (19)F NMR and 3-fluorotyrosine to evaluate

Solution NMR studies of protein structure and dynamics using fluorinated amino acid probes are a valuable addition to the repertoire of existing (13)C, (15)N, and (1)H experiments. Despite the numerous advantages of the (19)F nucleus in NMR, protein studies are

Expressed protein ligation (EPL) allows semisynthesis of a target protein with site-specific incorporation of probes or unnatural amino acids at its N or C termini. Here, we describe the protocol that our lab has developed for incorporating fluorotyrosines (F(n)Ys) at

The catalytic cycle of numerous enzymes involves the coupling between proton transfer and electron transfer. Yet, the understanding of this coordinated transfer in biological systems remains limited, likely because its characterization relies on the controlled but experimentally challenging modifications of
