O-Methyl-L-tyrosine tRNA synthetase

This part encodes for the aminoacyl tRNA synthetase (aaRS) for the non-natural amino-acid O‑methyl‑l‑tyrosine.

The orthogonal pair from the "Expanded Genetic Code Measurement Kit" by the iGEM team Austin Texas 2014 was used as a template.

Usage

The aaRS is used in combination with the supressor tRNA (for example BBa_K1976023). Together they form a so called orthogonal pair used for non-natural amino acid incorporation at position of the amber stop codon. In this case the non-natural amino acid is O‑methyl‑l‑tyrosine.
