Expanding the genetic code

open access: yesProtein Science, 2022
My interest in the biological sciences began during my third year of graduate school at Caltech. I had just completed a detailed study of the thermal and photochemistry of 1,1-diazenes in the Dervan lab. However, rather than write my thesis, I decided to

Recombinant Lactococcus lactis Carrying IL-4 and IL-10 Coding Vectors Protects against Type 1 Diabetes in NOD Mice and Attenuates Insulitis in the STZ-Induced Model

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Research, 2021
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease that culminates in beta cell destruction in the pancreas and, subsequently, deficiency in insulin production.

Indirect Routes to Aminoacyl-tRNA: The Diversity of Prokaryotic Cysteine Encoding Systems

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Universally present aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs) stringently recognize their cognate tRNAs and acylate them with one of the proteinogenic amino acids.

A computational screen for alternative genetic codes in over 250,000 genomes

open access: yeseLife, 2021
The genetic code has been proposed to be a ‘frozen accident,’ but the discovery of alternative genetic codes over the past four decades has shown that it can evolve to some degree.

A code within the genetic code: codon usage regulates co-translational protein folding

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2020
The genetic code is degenerate, and most amino acids are encoded by two to six synonymous codons. Codon usage bias, the preference for certain synonymous codons, is a universal feature of all genomes examined.

Resource conservation manifests in the genetic code

open access: yesScience, 2020
Maximizing elements for your genome The accumulation of mutations is typically limited by selective parameters. One such parameter is the elements needed to build proteins and molecules to maintain cells.

Biophysical Interactions Underpin the Emergence of Information in the Genetic Code

open access: yesLife, 2023
The genetic code conceals a ‘code within the codons’, which hints at biophysical interactions between amino acids and their cognate nucleotides. Yet, research over decades has failed to corroborate systematic biophysical interactions across the code ...

Special identity subgraph in genetic code [PDF]

open access: yesNetwork Biology, 2022
The genetic code is a series of codons that stores genetic information about protein molecule formation. The identity graph of a group G is a graph in which the vertex set is the set of all elements of the group and two vertices in G are adjacent if a.b =

Biochemistry of Aminoacyl tRNA Synthetase and tRNAs and Their Engineering for Cell-Free and Synthetic Cell Applications

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Cell-free biology is increasingly utilized for engineering biological systems, incorporating novel functionality, and circumventing many of the complications associated with cells. The central dogma describes the information flow in biology consisting of

Using Genetic Code Expansion for Protein Biochemical Studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
Protein identification has gone beyond simply using protein/peptide tags and labeling canonical amino acids. Genetic code expansion has allowed residue- or site-specific incorporation of non-canonical amino acids into proteins. By taking advantage of the
