Abstract Non-canonical amino acids (ncaas) are increasingly used in vaccinology to improve vaccine adaptability and immunogenicity. Cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS) offers a promising route for site-specific ncaa incorporation, but conventional prokaryotic CFPS systems show limitations to produce complex proteins requiring post-translational modifications while eukaryotic systems have historically been difficult to scale and show low protein yields.

Abstract To establish infections in human hosts, Pseudomonas aeruginosa must overcome innate immune generated oxidative stress, such as the hypochlorous acid (HOCl) produced by neutrophils. We set out to find specific biomarkers of oxidative stress through the development of a protocol for the metabolic profiling of P.
