Abstract
Caged but not trapped! Caged reagents are molecules from which biological effectors are released by photolysis. Here, p-hydroxyphenacyl bromide is used to derivatize a model peptide containing a thiophosphotyrosine residue in order to mimic phosphorylation at tyrosine. Upon photolysis, a biologically active peptide is released. Peptides and proteins caged on thiophosphotyrosine will be useful in signal transduction research.
