Incorporation of Fluorotyrosines into Ribonucleotide Reductase Using an Evolved, Polyspecific Aminoacyl-tRNA Synthetase

Tyrosyl radicals (Y·s) are prevalent in biological catalysis and are formed under physiological conditions by the coupled loss of both a proton and an electron. Fluorotyrosines (F[subscript n]Ys, n = 1–4) are promising tools for studying the mechanism of Y· formation and reactivity, as their pK[subs...
