13. Pro molecules were prepared by in vitro transcription (Liu. H.; Peterson, R.; Kessler, J.; Musier-Forsyth, K. Nucleic Acids Res. 1995, 23, 165-169). Aminoacylation with alanine was performed using 10-100 nM AlaRS and tRNA concentrations ranging from 0.1-16 μM. AlaRS was purified according to Miller et al. (Miller, W. T.; Hou, Y.-M.; Schimmel, P. Biochemistry 1991, 30, 2635-2641). Kinetic parameters were estimated from Lineweaver-Burk plots and are averages of two determinations.
