Comment | This model describes a radical SAM protein, PylB, that is part of the three-gene cassette sufficient for the biosynthesis of pyrrolysine (the twenty-second amino acid) when expressed heterologously in E. coli. The pyrrolysine next is ligated to its own tRNA and incorporated at special UAG codons. |
