  • Cloning the zebrafish otoferlin b wildtype and a transmembrane mutant to characterize changes in cellular localization

    Creator:
    France, Rebecca A.
    Abstract:
    Otoferlin is a protein that is essential in the process of hearing. Mutations in otoferlin are associated with profound recessive deafness. The long-term goal of the Johnson lab is to understand how otoferlin contributes to hearing and why certain mutations result in deafness. This project sought to characterize the difference...

  • Tuning tRNA and EF-Tu for the Efficient Site-specific Incorporation of Noncanonical Amino Acids into Proteins

    Creator:
    Gottfried-Lee, Ilana L.
    Abstract:
    Genetic code expansion (GCE) is a technology that allows us to incorporate noncanonical amino acids (ncAAs) site-specifically into recombinant proteins using engineered translational machinery. Typically, an orthogonal aaRS/tRNA pair is engineered by directed evolution to recognize the ncAA and incorporate it at a reassigned codon while not interacting with the...
