Achievements


Establishment of two orthogonal methods for the detection of unnatural base pairs in a target sequence via Oxford Nanopore sequencing and an enzyme based detection method


Development of a software suite for these orthogonal methods

Integration and characterization of the nucleotide transporter PtNTT2 from P.tricornutum in E.coli for the uptake of unnatural nucleoside triphosphates


Construction of a toolbox consisting of five aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases for incorporation of non-canonical amino acids

Design, chemical synthesis and proof of functionality of a novel, fully synthetic amino acid based on cyanonitrobenzothiazol and asparagine


Modeling more than ten new aaRS sequences


Library development with several hundred thousand sequences for selecting aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases

Construction of positive and negative selection plasmids for the evolution of new synthetases for non-canonical amino acids


Improvement of an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase test-system by introducing a FRET-system and development of a ranking system


Construction of an LED panel for irradiating 96-well microtiter plates, which can be used to manipulate non-canonical amino acids and much more


Development of an Android App to control the LED panel with your smartphone via Bluetooth

Writing a biosafety report titled “Auxotrophy to Xeno-DNA: A Comprehensive Exploration of Combinatorial Mechanisms for a High-Fidelity Biosafety System”


Writing the ChImp Report on “Chances and Implications of an Expanded Genetic Code”
