12
Rationale for in vitro synthetic biology Existing powerful molecular biology kits: DNA RNA Protein PCR, T7 RNA pol, in vitro translation. Build structures incompatible with cells (systems interfering with cells or vice versa) Higher yield, accuracy,purity and/or speed.
13
Why new genetic codes? Precise "post-translational" modifications New reactive AAs (not w/ biomolecules) e.g. PEG-pAcPhe-hGH (Ambrx, Schultz) higher serum stability Azide Strained cyclo-octyne + + Prescher, JA & CR Bertozzi (2005) Nature Chem Biol.
