Service Introduction

Tyrosine phosphorylation(pY) refers to phosphorylation occurring on tyrosine residues. It plays critical roles in multiple biological and pathological processes, including cell signaling, cell proliferation, differentiation, and disease progression, such as cancer and neurodegenerative diseases.

Tyrosine phosphorylation also holds strong clinical relevance in drug development. Currently, more than 60% of FDA-approved small-molecule kinase inhibitors target tyrosine kinases. However, compared with the more common serine/threonine phosphorylation, tyrosine phosphorylation occurs at relatively low abundance. In addition, its unique molecular features make conventional omics workflows less effective in achieving deep site coverage, limiting comprehensive investigation of tyrosine phosphorylation events.

To better meet the growing demand for tyrosine phosphorylation research, PTM BIO has introduced an upgraded Tyrosine phosphorylation proteomics, solution powered by five major technology innovations.

Technology Principle

To further support functional and disease-mechanism studies of pY biology, PTM BIO has developed proprietary recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibodies for tyrosine phosphorylation enrichment, combined with next-generation high-resolution mass spectrometry platforms.

Based on extensive experience across thousands of phosphorylation proteomics projects, PTM BIO has further optimized the workflow and established a large-scale phosphotyrosine spectral library. This enables high-performance tyrosine phosphorylation proteomics services for studies in cancer mechanisms, therapeutic target screening, kinase analysis, immune-related diseases, host–pathogen immunity, and neurological disorders.
