Phosphorylation is a reversible PTM that regulates protein function. Left panel: Protein kinases mediate phosphorylation at serine, threonine and tyrosine side chains, and phosphatases reverse protein phosphorylation by hydrolyzing the phosphate group. Right panel: Phosphorylation causes conformational changes in proteins that either activate top or inactivate bottom protein function.

This page handbook provides comprehensive information about protein expression and will help you choose the right expression system and purification technologies for your specific application and needs.

Kinases are enzymes that facilitate phosphate group transfer to substrates. Greater than kinases have been predicted in the human proteome; this subset of proteins comprises the human kinome.

Substrates for kinase activity are diverse and include lipids, carbohydrates, nucleotides and proteins. ATP is the cosubstrate for almost all protein kinases, although guanosine triphosphate is used by a small number of kinases. While the substrate specificity of kinases varies, the ATP-binding site is generally conserved. Indeed, studies have shown that the relative abundance ratio of pS:pT:pY in a cell is Although pY is not as prevalent as pS and pT, global tyrosine phosphorylation is at the forefront of biomedical research because of its relation to human disease via the dysregulation of receptor tyrosine kinases RTKs.

Protein kinase substrate specificity is based not only on the target amino acid but also on consensus sequences that flank it.

Additionally, kinases can phosphorylate single or multiple amino acids on an individual protein if the kinase-specific consensus sequences are available. Kinases have regulatory subunits that function as activating or autoinhibitory domains and have various regulatory substrates.

Phosphorylation of these subunits is a common approach to regulating kinase activity. Most protein kinases are dephosphorylated and inactive in the basal state and are activated by phosphorylation. A small number of kinases are constitutively active and are made intrinsically inefficient, or inactive, when phosphorylated. Some kinases, such as Src, require a combination of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation to become active, indicating the high regulation of this proto-oncogene.

Scaffolding and adaptor proteins can also influence kinase activity by regulating the spatial relationship between kinases and upstream regulators and downstream substrates. The activity of specific kinases can be measured by incubating immunoprecipitates with substrates for specific kinases and ATP. Commercial kits are available for this type of assay and are designed to yield colorimetric, radiometric or fluorometric detection.

While this type of assay shows the activity of specific kinases, as with kinase enrichment, it does not provide information on the proteins that the kinases modify or the role of endogenous phosphatase activity. The reversibility of protein phosphorylation makes this type of PTM ideal for signal transduction, which allows cells to rapidly respond to intracellular or extracellular stimuli. Signal transduction cascades are characterized by one or more proteins physically sensing cues, either through ligand binding, cleavage or some other response, that then relay the signal to second messengers and signaling enzymes.

In the case of phosphorylation, these receptors activate downstream kinases, which then phosphorylate and activate their cognate downstream substrates, including additional kinases, until the specific response is achieved.

Signal transduction cascades can be linear, in which kinase A activates kinase B, which activates kinase C and so forth. Signaling pathways have also been discovered that amplify the initial signal; kinase A activates multiple kinases, which in turn activate additional kinases. With this type of signaling, a single molecule, such as a growth factor, can activate global cellular programs such as proliferation.

Signal transduction cascades amplify the signal output. External and internal stimuli induce a wide range of cellular responses through a series of second messengers and enzymes. Linear signal transduction pathways yield the sequential activation of a discrete number of downstream effectors, while other stimuli elicit signal cascades that amplify the initial stimulus for large-scale or global cellular responses. The intensity and duration of phosphorylation-dependent signaling is regulated by three mechanisms:.

While dephosphorylation is the end goal of these two groups of phosphatases, they do it through separate mechanisms. Because of the influence that phosphorylation has on biological processes in general, a huge emphasis has been placed on understanding the biological role of protein phosphorylation in the context of human disease.

Small-scale protein phosphorylation is commonly performed to study the activity of a small number of proteins, while phosphoproteomic analyses are increasingly used to understand the global dynamics of phosphorylation of entire protein families. Current approaches to study protein phosphorylation include immunodetection, phosphoprotein or phosphopeptide enrichment, kinase activity assays and mass spectrometry.
