Abstract excerpt
Trimethylsilyl (TMS) groups present outstanding NMR probes of biological macromolecules as they produce intense singlets in 1H NMR spectra near 0 ppm, where few other proton resonances occur. We report a system for genetic encoding of N6-(((trimethylsilyl)methoxy)carbonyl)-l-lysine (TMSK) for site-specific incorporation into proteins. The system is based on pyrrolysyl-tRNA synthetase mutants, which deliver...
