Accessing human selenoproteins through chemical protein synthesis
View through CrossRef
The human body contains 25 selenoproteins, but challenges in their preparations have prevented biological characterizations thus far. Here we report the first total chemical syntheses of two human selenoproteins, selenoprotein M (SELM) and selenoprotein W (SELW).
