Abstract
Protein recognition using host-guest recognition approach is of great interest but has been limited mainly to the protein N-terminal residues.Here,we site-specific incorporated two novel non-canonical amino acids containing supramolecular guest motifs into protein via an expanded genetic code.Through Staudinger reduction reactions,the encoded unnatural residues on protein becoming activated and can be specifically recognized by cucurbit[7]uril(CB[7])and cucurbit[8]uril(CB[8]).We demonstrated that enzyme containing guest amino acid incorporated near the active site can be reversibly regulated by CB[7]recognition,and CB[8]recognition induces protein dimerization.These amino acids will make use-ful addition to the supramolecular toolbox for protein targeting using molecular recognition approaches.
