Description

Oxine L-Ala translation system and application thereof
Technical field
The invention belongs to biochemical field.Particularly; the invention provides a kind of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase mutant; it is a kind of orthogonal aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase; its aminoacid sequence containing selects the group of the examples of conservative variations composition of the aminoacid sequence shown in the aminoacid sequence shown in free SEQ ID NO:4 and SEQ ID NO:4, and described examples of conservative variations has the enzymic activity identical with the aminoacid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:4.The invention still further relates to a kind of 2-amino-3-(oxine-5-yl) propionic acid (be called for short oxine L-Ala, be abbreviated as HqAla) translation system.More specifically; the present invention relates to utilize the pairing of orthogonal tRNA, orthogonal aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase that oxine L-Ala or its analog fixed point specificity are inserted to the translation system of target protein, and utilize the described translation system specificity of fixing a point in target protein to insert the method for oxine L-Ala or its analog.The invention still further relates to a kind of tyrosine phenol lyase mutant, its aminoacid sequence containing is by shown in SEQ ID NO:5, and described tyrosine phenol lyase mutant catalysis oxine generates oxine L-Ala.Finally, the present invention also provides a kind of mutein that comprises alpha-non-natural amino acid that can chelated metal ions by genetic coding to expand the method for protein function.
Background technology
The alpha-non-natural amino acid of genetic coding chelated metal ions is a kind of Study on Protein sensor design, the powerful of metalloenzyme engineering and pyrenoids mr, but, be limited to the synthetic complicacy of alpha-non-natural amino acid, the method can not be applied widely by biologist.The present invention passes through orthogenesis tyrosine phenol lyase, the biosynthesizing of a kind of novel alpha-non-natural amino acid-oxine L-Ala of catalysis efficiently, and this alpha-non-natural amino acid can form stable compound with multiple transition metal ion.Tyrosine phenol lyase (Tyrosine phenol lyase, TPL), has another name called beta-Tyrosinase, taking pyridoxal phosphate (pyridoxal-phosphate, PLP) as coenzyme.1987, the subunit that the discovery TPL molecules such as Kazakov are about 50kDa by 4 identical molecular weight formed, and each subunit tetramer and 4 molecule pyridoxal phosphates (PLP) combine.Can there is the generation of β-elimination reaction phenol, pyruvic acid and ammonia by catalysis TYR in TPL.Because this reaction is reversible, oxine is replaced after phenol, can under TPL catalysis, generate oxine L-Ala by oxine, Sodium.alpha.-ketopropionate and ammonium chloride.
Genetic coding oxine L-Ala also needs a kind of method of the special insertion alpha-non-natural amino acid of fixing a point in target protein, and this research has now been developed in protokaryon and eukaryote and will in various alpha-non-natural amino acid bodies, have been fixed a point to insert the universal method of protein locus specificity.These methods depend on orthogonal protein translation component, and described component identifies suitable selection codon (selector codon) thereby polypeptide translate duration inserts required alpha-non-natural amino acid to limit position in vivo.These methods are utilized the orthogonal tRNA (O-tRNA) of identification selection codon, and the corresponding orthogonal aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase of specificity (O-RS) loads this O-tRNA with alpha-non-natural amino acid.These components not with host organisms in any endogenous tRNA, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (RS), amino acid or codon cross reaction (, it must be orthogonal).Utilize the alpha-non-natural amino acid of a large amount of configurations of this orthogonal tRNA-RS pairing possibility genetic coding.
This area generally knows that utilization is suitable for the orthogonal translation system of preparation containing the protein of one or more alpha-non-natural amino acids, for example, produce the universal method of orthogonal translation system.For example, referring to international publication number WO 2002/086075, its denomination of invention is " METHODS AND COMPOSITIONFOR THE PRODUCTION OF ORTHOGONAL tRNA-AMINOACYL-tRNASYNTHETASE PAIRS "; WO 2002/085923, its denomination of invention is " IN VIVOINCORPORATION OF UNNATURAL AMINO ACIDS "; WO 2004/094593, its denomination of invention is " EXPANDING THE EUKARYOTIC GENETIC CODE ".Fixed point specificity inserts the orthogonal translation system of alpha-non-natural amino acid and other discussion of their generation and using method also can be referring to Wang and Schultz, Chem.Commun.
