2. The rapidly growing list of amino acids isolated from various natural sources makes the terms unnatural, or non-proteinogenic amino acids, which are most frequently used in the literature, dependent on the success of specific scientific achievements. For instance, amino acids containing the xenobiotic element fluorine have been shown to be synthesized by microorganisms (see ref. 3). Therefore, the time independent term tailor- made, meaning rationally designed/synthesized amino acids, in the absence of a better definition, is used in this paper.
