May the best codon win : N ‐methyl amino acids ( N ‐Me AAs) are important modifications found in several nonribosomal peptide therapeutics. Previously, it was shown that three N ‐Me AAs are efficiently incorporated into peptides using a cell‐free in‐vitro translation system. Now, the incorporation of these N ‐Me AAs has been optimized by varying the template codon.
