Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases perform a critical step in translation by aminoacylating tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. Although high fidelity of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases is often thought to be essential for cell biology, recent studies indicate that cells tolerate and may even

Engineered aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases have been used to enable the incorporation of many unnatural amino acids into recombinant proteins in vivo. In the majority of these studies, the engineered synthetase is harbored on a plasmid while the host retains a wild-type

Incorporation of noncanonical amino acids into cellular proteins often requires engineering new aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase activity into the cell. A screening strategy that relies on cell-surface display of reactive amino acid side-chains was used to identify a diverse set of methionyl-tRNA

Methionyl-tRNA synthetase (MetRS) belongs to the family of 20 enzymes essential for protein biosynthesis. It links covalently methionine with its cognate tRNA. Crystal structures solved for bacterial MetRSs have given a number of interesting insights into enzyme architecture and methionylation

Formylation of initiator methionyl-tRNA by methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase (MTF) is important for initiation of protein synthesis in eubacteria. The determinants for formylation are clustered mostly in the acceptor stem of the initiator tRNA. Previous studies suggested that a 16 amino acid
