Optical control of protein phosphatase function
Protein phosphatases play an essential role in signal transduction, but are understudied due to the difficulties in detecting phosphate removal and the lack of good inhibitors. Here the authors develop a light-activated protein phosphatase using photocaged, unnatural amino acids and use it to study...

Protein phosphatases play an essential role in signal transduction, but are understudied due to the difficulties in detecting phosphate removal and the lack of good inhibitors. Here the authors develop a light-activated protein phosphatase using photocaged, unnatural amino acids and use it to study ERK nuclear translocation. |
