Biological Activity for L-Azidonorleucine hydrochloride

L-Azidonorleucine hydrochloride is an unnatural amino acid; methionine surrogate. Can be incorporated into proteins by a mutant methionyl tRNA synthetase to enable cell-type specific analysis of protein synthesis. For use with bio-orthogonal non-canonical amino-acid tagging (BONCAT) or fluorescent non-canonical amino acid tagging (FUNCAT). Labeling does not affect the normal localization of the labeled proteins.
