An -Based Phosphorylation System for Efficient Screening of Kinase Substrates.

Posttranslational modifications (PTMs), particularly phosphorylation, play a pivotal role in expanding the complexity of the proteome and regulating diverse cellular processes. In this study, we present an efficient phosphorylation system designed to streamline the evaluation of potential substrates for plant kinases, although the technology is amenable to any. The methodology involves the use of IPTG-inducible vectors for co-expressing kinases and substrates, eliminating the need for radioactive isotopes and prior protein purification.
