Non-canonical amino acid incorporation enables minimally disruptive labeling of stress granule and TDP-43 proteinopathy
We report a minimally disruptive labeling strategy for stress granule protein, G3BP Stress Granule Assembly Factor 1 (G3BP1), and ALS-linked protein, TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43), using the fluorescent non-canonical amino acid Anap. By integrating the genetic code expansion (GCE) with rational site selection, we achieved precise incorporation of Anap
