Identifying Kinase Substrates via a Heavy ATP Kinase Assay and Quantitative Mass Spectrometry

Sci Rep. 2016 Jun 27:6:28107. doi: 10.1038/srep28107.

Abstract

Mass spectrometry-based in vitro kinase screens play an essential role in the discovery of kinase substrates, however, many suffer from biological and technical noise or necessitate genetically-altered enzyme-cofactor systems. We describe a method that combines stable γ-[(18)O2]-ATP with classical in vitro kinase assays within a contemporary quantitative proteomic workflow. Our approach improved detection of known substrates of the non-receptor tyrosine kinase ABL1; and identified potential, new in vitro substrates.
