Figure 3.

The translation efficiency and accuracy of the simplified code are comparable to those of the universal code. (A) The fluorescent intensities of GFP mutants synthesized by the simplified and universal codes. Results are presented as means ± SD (n = 3). (B) Superposition of the overall crystal structures of gfpΔUGG-A110X(UGG)/Sim (yellow) and gfpΔUGG/Univ (green). The chromophore is shown by a stick representation. (C) Detailed views of the amino acid at position 110 and Phe114 of gfpΔUGG-A110X(UGG)/Sim or gfpΔUGG/Univ, in ball-and-stick representations. The 2FoFc map is contoured at 1.0 σ and overlaid on the model. The color code is as in (B).
