Large-scale Discovery of Substrates of the Human Kinome.

ABSTRACT: Kinase networks are important for cellular signal transduction. Despite tremendous efforts to uncover these signaling pathways, huge numbers of uncharacterized phosphosites still remain in the human proteome. Because of the transient nature of kinase-substrate interactions in vivo, it is almost impossible to identify direct substrates. Here, we present a strategy for the rapid, accurate and high-throughput discovery of in vitro kinase substrates using quantitative proteomics. Using 385 purified kinases (354 wild-type protein kinases, 21 mutants and 10 lipid kinases), we identified a total of 175,574 potential direct kinase substrates. In addition, we identified novel kinase groups, such as one group containing 30 threonine-directed kinases and another containing 15 serine/threonine/tyrosin
