A biological boronate : An orthogonal tRNA/aminoacyl‐tRNA synthetase pair has been evolved for the genetic incorporation of a boronic acid into proteins. This amino acid has been used to purify proteins in a one‐step scarless purification procedure as well as for the site‐specific labeling of proteins using various boronic acid chemistries.
