Kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation plays an important role in cell physiology by regulating a myriad of cellular functions. Thus aberrant kinase activity is implicated in various diseases. Methods are needed to discover kinase substrates and map signaling pathways to explore biology and to help drug discovery. A few techniques are currently available to discover kinase substrate and map cell signaling. However, to augment kinase substrate discovery approaches, it is essential to develop alternative techniques. Pflum has recently discovered cosubstrate promiscuity of protein kinases with gamma-modified ATP analogs. Here, kinase-catalyzed biotinylation with ATP-biotin was used to develop novel tools to discover kinase substrates …

Phosphorylation is an important post-translational modification that plays a key role in a variety of signaling cascades and cellular functions. Kinases phosphorylate protein substrates in a highly regulated manner and are promiscuous. Understanding kinase-substrate specificity has been challenging and there is a need for new chemical tools. To this end we developed -phosphate modified ATP photocrosslinking analogs ATP-ArN3 and ATP-BP, that crosslink substrate and kinase in a phosphorylation dependent manner. We have successfully demonstrated that ATP-ArN3 and ATP-BP can be used with natural kinase and substrates using cell lysates in vitro. We used our approach to identify novel kinases of …
