PubMed Abstract: Cyanotryptophans (CN-Trp) are privileged multimodal reporters on protein structure. They are similar in size to the canonical amino acid tryptophan and some of them exhibit bright fluorescence which responds sensitively to changes in the environment. We selected aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases specific for 4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-CN-Trp for high-yield in vivo production of proteins with a single, site-specifically introduced nitrile label. The absorption maximum of 4-CN-Trp is distinct from Trp, allowing the selective excitation of its intense fluorescence. 4-CN-Trp fluoresces in the visible range with an intensity rivalling that of 7-hydroxy-coumarin. Crystal structures of maltose binding protein demonstrate near-complete structural conservation when a native buried Trp residue is replaced by 4-CN-Trp. Besides presenting an inconspicuous tag for live cell microscopy, the intense fluorescence of 4-CN-Trp enables measurements of subnanomolar ligand binding affinities in isotropic solution, as demonstrated by the complex between rapamycin and the peptidyl-prolyl isomerase FKBP12 furnished with a 4-CN-Trp residue in the substrate binding pocket. Furthermore, 4-CN-Trp residues positioned at different locations of a protein containing multiple tryptophan residues permits using fluorescence quenching experiments to detect the proximity of individual Trp residues to the binding site of aromatic ligands.
