摘要: We re-engineered the small-molecule binding site of E. coli lipoic acid ligase (LplA) to accept a fluorinated aryl azide probe in place acid. The mutated can covalently attach recombinant proteins fused 17-amino recognition sequence for LplA (called "LAP"). Labeling is highly specific, modifying LAP fusion exclusion all endogenous mammalian proteins. In cell lysate, we labeled FKBP with and demonstrated rapamycin-dependent photocrosslinking FRB.
