Genetic Code Expansion in Zebrafish Embryos and Its Application to Optical Control of Cell Signaling.

Site-specific incorporation of unnatural amino acids into proteins provides a powerful tool to study protein function. Here we report genetic code expansion in zebrafish embryos and its application to the optogenetic control of cell signaling. We genetically encoded four unnatural amino acids with a...
