Demonstrate Your Work
To use these new blank codons, we developed a library over hundred-thousand synthetase sequences and a positive/negative selection system to obtain new aminoacyl-tRNA-synthetases. These can be applied to couple non-canonical amino acids to the tRNA and to turn semi-synthetic codons functional.
To demonstrate the benefits of non-canonical amino acids to the synthetic biology community, we worked on five applications utilizing non-canonical amino acids. Furthermore, we designed and synthetized our own fully synthetic non-canonical amino acid and modeled possible synthetase-sequences for its incorporation. We also improved a test system and defined a ranking system for aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases
While we were not able to incorporate non-canonical amino acids through semi-synthetic codons, we are convinced that we have laid the foundations for a whole new field of synthetic biology for the iGEM community. We would be very honored if future teams would build on our project to further develop this approach and to develop new and exciting applications! Expand!
