  • Patent number: 9914757
    Abstract: Provided is a methionyl tRNA synthase (MRS) for the biosynthesis of a photomethionine-labeled protein and a method for preparing a photoactivatable protein G variant using same and, more particularly, to an MRS variant in which alanine at the position of 12th is substituted with glycine, leucine at the position of 13th by serine, tyrosine at the position of 260th by phenylalanine, isoleucine at the position of 297th by valine, and histidine at the position of 301st by leucine from the N-terminal of the amino acid sequence of a wild-type Escherichia coli methionyl tRNA synthase. The MRS variant effectively confirms the biosynthesis of a photomethionine (pM)-labeled target protein and thus can be utilized for the biosynthesis of a pM-labeled target protein.
    Type: Grant
