Double mimicry evades tRNA synthetase editing by toxic vegetable-sourced non-proteinogenic amino acid

Hundreds of non-proteinogenic (np) amino acids (AA) are found in plants and can in principle enter human protein synthesis through foods. While aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (AARS) editing potentially provides a mechanism to reject np AAs, some have pathological associations. Co-crystal structures show...
