Abstract excerpt
The method of Smith and Hartman [J. Biol. Chem., 263, 4921-4925 (1988)] for introducing the non-natural lysine analog, S-(2-aminoethyl)cysteine, into specific sites in proteins by alkylation of a genetically introduced cysteine with 2-bromoethylamine has been generalized to be applicable to proteins containing one or more endogenous cysteines. The target cysteine residue introduced at the active site of aspartate...
