A site to behold: Robust site-specific functionalization of engineered proteins is achieved with N-myristoyl transferase (NMT) in bacterial cells. NMT tolerates non-natural substrate proteins as well as reactive fatty acid tags, rendering it a powerful tool for protein conjugation applications, including the construction of protein microarrays from lysate.
在细菌细胞中,通过 N-豆蔻酰转移酶(NMT)实现了工程蛋白的稳健的位点特异性功能化。NMT 能够容忍非天然底物蛋白和反应性脂肪酸标签,使其成为蛋白质偶联应用的强大工具,包括从裂解物构建蛋白质微阵列。
