Abstract:

Protein phosphorylation encompasses a central cellular language that determines every facet of normal cellular biology. We have recently created a technology that enables site-specific incorporation of phosphoserine into proteins by expanding the genetic code of Escherichia coli.  I will describe our new capability to synthesize and observe phosphoproteome-scale libraries of human phosphoproteins that enable answers to systems level questions regarding the functional role of all human phosphorylation events.  Our work has also advanced the protein-protein interaction field by enabling the first system for large-scale genetic screening of phosphorylation dependent protein-protein interactions.
