Project summary
In this project, you will build on our previous work developing stable analogues of phosphohistidine (Org. Biomol. Chem. (2012)10, 4043), dehydroalanine (Chem Commun. (2015) 51 13470) and triazine-containing analogues of phenylalanine (Chem. Eur. J (2015) 21 14376) to generate new probe molecules for chemical proteomics and chemical biology.
Dependent upon the particular target these might have applications in the study of protein phosphorylation by chemical proteomics, in general applications for target identification and protein labelling, or enable us to generate highly functionalised proteins in tandem with our sortase-catalysed methdology (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. (2012) 51 9377).
