Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatases, SH2 and PTB domains are crucial elements for cellular signal transduction and regulation. Much effort has been directed towards elucidating their specificity in the past decade using a variety of approaches. Combinatorial library methods have contributed significantly to the understanding of substrate and ligand specificity of phosphoprotein recognizing domains. This review gives a brief overview of the structural characteristics of protein tyrosine phosphatases, SH2 and PTB domains and their binding to phosphopeptides. The chemical synthesis of peptides containing phosphotyrosine or phosphotyrosine mimics and the various formats of synthesis and deconvolution of combinatorial libraries are explained in detail. Examples are given as how different combinatorial libraries have been used to study the interaction of phosphopeptides with SH2 domains and phosphatases. The intrinsic advantages and difficulties of library synthesis, screening and deconvolution are pointed out. Finally, some experimental results on the substrate specificity of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B and the SH2 domain of the adaptor protein Grb-2 are summarized and discussed.

Nutrition and Metabolism in Musculoskeletal Diseases
The musculoskeletal system consists mainly of cartilage, bone, muscles, tendons, connective tissue and ligaments. Balanced metabolism is of vital importance for the homeostasis of the musculoskeletal system. A series of musculoskeletal diseases (for example, sarcopenia, osteoporosis) are resulted from the dysregulated metabolism of the musculoskeletal system. Furthermore, metabolic diseases (such ...read more
Protein Folding, Aggregation and Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation
Protein folding, misfolding and aggregation remain one of the main problems of interdisciplinary science not only because many questions are still open, but also because they are important from the point of view of practical application. Protein aggregation and formation of fibrillar structures, for example, is a hallmark of a ...read more
