Abstract
In this work, we design a new approach for digital counting-based protein kinase activity assay by using plasmonic nanoparticle-assisted single-molecule dynamic binding. This method breaks the concentration-dependent limitation in single-molecule detection and displays good selectivity and sensitivity with a detection limit as low as 0.0001 U mL-1 for the protein kinase A (PKA) assay, which would find broad applications in drug screening and medical investigations.

Abstract
The ever-increasing prevalence of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) represents a major public health burden worldwide. The most common form of NCD is metabolic diseases, which affect people of all ages and usually manifest their pathobiology through life-threatening cardiovascular complications. A comprehensive understanding of the pathobiology of metabolic diseases will generate novel targets for improved therapies across the common metabolic spectrum. Protein posttranslational modification (PTM) is an important term that refers to biochemical modification of specific amino acid residues in target proteins, which immensely increases the functional diversity of the proteome. The range of PTMs includes phosphorylation, acetylation, methylation, ubiquitination, SUMOylation, neddylation, glycosylation, palmitoylation, myristoylation, prenylation, cholesterylation, glutathionylation, S-nitrosylation, sulfhydration, citrullination, ADP ribosylation, and several novel PTMs. Here, we offer a comprehensive review of PTMs and their roles in common metabolic diseases and pathological consequences, including diabetes, obesity, fatty liver diseases, hyperlipidemia, and atherosclerosis. Building upon this framework, we afford a through description of proteins and pathways involved in metabolic diseases by focusing on PTM-based protein modifications, showcase the pharmaceutical intervention of PTMs in preclinical studies and clinical trials, and offer future perspectives. Fundamental research defining the mechanisms whereby PTMs of proteins regulate metabolic diseases will open new avenues for therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Protein kinases play important roles in regulating various cellular processes and may function as potential diagnostic and therapeutic targets for various diseases including cancers. Herein, we construct a phos-tag-directed self-assembled fluorescent magnetobiosensor to simultaneously detect multiple protein kinases with good selectivity and high sensitivity. In the presence of protein kinases (i.e., PKA and Akt1), their substrate peptides (i.e., a FITC-labeled substrate peptide and a Cy5-labeled substrate peptide) are phosphorylated, and are then specifically recognized and captured by a biotinylated phos-tag to generate biotinylated substrate peptides for the assembly of magnetic bead (MB)-peptides-FITC/Cy5 nanostructures. After magnetic separation, the phosphorylated substrate peptides are disassembled from the MB-peptides-FITC/Cy5 nanostructures using deionized water at 80 °C, releasing FITC and Cy5 molecules. The released FITC and Cy5 molecules are detected by steady-state fluorescence measurements, with FITC indicating PKA and Cy5 indicating Akt1. This magnetobiosensor only involves one phos-tag without the requirement of radiolabeling, antibody screening, carboxypeptidase Y (CPY) cleavage, and cumbersome chemical/enzyme reactions. The introduction of magnetic separation can effectively eliminate the interference from complex real samples, generating an extremely low background signal. Moreover, this magnetobiosensor can accurately measure cellular protein kinase activities and screen inhibitors, with great potential for kinase-related biomedical research and therapeutic applications.

Abstract
In this study, we present a facile and low-cost approach for detecting protein kinase A (PKA) by assembling a purpose-designed carboxyfluorescein (FAM)-labeled peptide with carboxylic carbon nanoparticles (CNPs). Fluorescence of the FAM-labeled peptide gradually decreases to low background signal as a result of the electron transfer from CNPs to FAM-labeled peptide via the peptide, which acts as a bridge. The reaction in the sensor in the presence of adenosine 5'-triphosphate and PKA phosphorylates the substrate peptide and disrupts the electrostatic repulsive force between the CNPs and the peptide, thus altering the spectroscopic signal of the system. The change in fluorescence signal was directly proportional to the PKA concentration in the range of 0-1.8 U/mL with a detection limit of 0.04 U/mL. These results suggest that PKA activity can be effectively measured using the developed PKA biosensor. Moreover, the fluorescence biosensor was successfully used in the investigation of PKA in spiked human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells lysates, indicating its potential applications in protein kinase-related biochemical fundamental research.

Abstract
A novel aggregation-induced emission (AIE) probe comprised of a hydrophilic protein kinase specific peptide and a hydrophobic tetraphenylethene (TPE) unit was synthesized through click reaction. The prepared TPE-peptide probe could be completely degraded by carboxypeptidase Y (CPY) to release hydrophobic TPE part, which aggregated in buffer solution and showed strong TPE emission. In the presence of casein kinase (CKII), the phosphorylation of peptide prevented the complete degradation by CPY producing the nonemissive probe. Thus, the developed probe can be used to detect CKII homogeneously and conveniently. This detection process can be finished within 1.5 h with high sensitivity (0.05 mU/μL) and good selectivity. The developed method can also be used to screen protein kinase inhibitor even in a complex biological system.

Abstract
Many proteins can be split into fragments that spontaneously reassemble, without covalent linkage, into a functional protein. For split green fluorescent proteins (GFPs), fragment reassembly leads to a fluorescent readout, which has been widely used to investigate protein-protein interactions. We review the scope and limitations of this approach as well as other diverse applications of split GFPs as versatile sensors, molecular glues, optogenetic tools, and platforms for photophysical studies.

Abstract
Recombinant proteins have shown several benefits compared with their non-recombinant counterparts in protein therapeutics. However, there are still some problems with the storage and distribution of recombinant proteins, owing to their temperature sensitivity. Microfluidic chips can integrate different functional modules into a single device because of the advantages of integration and miniaturization, which have the special potential to synthesize drugs when and where they are needed most. Here, we integrated cell-free protein synthesis and purification into a microfluidic chip for the production of recombinant protein. The chip consisted of a main channel and a branch channel. The main channel included two pinches, which were filled with template DNA-modified agarose microbeads and nickel ion-modified agarose beads as the cell-free protein synthesis unit and protein purification unit, respectively. The reaction mixture for protein synthesis was introduced into the main channel and first passed through the protein synthesis unit where the target protein was synthesized; next, the reaction mixture passed through the protein purification unit where the target protein was captured; and, finally, pure protein was collected at the outlet when washing buffer and eluting buffer were sequentially introduced into the branch channel. Enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) was used as the model to investigate the performance of our chip. One chip could produce 70 μl of EGFP solution (144.3 μg/ml, 10.1 μg) per batch, and another round of protein synthesis and purification could be performed after replacing or regenerating nickel ion-modified agarose beads. It should be possible to produce other recombinant proteins on demand with this chip by simply replacing the template DNA.

Abstract
The present work reported a simple, lable-free and sensitive electrochemical method for the detection of protein kinase A (PKA) activity. This method was based on the specific recognition of aptamer and the aptamer-induced hybridization chain reaction (HCR) amplification strategy. The aptasensor was constructed by immobilizing capture probe on a gold electrode via an Au-S bond. When adenosine triphosphate (ATP) aptamer was introduced, its one terminus hybridized with capture probe and the other hybridized with the complementary region of an auxiliary probe, which other region triggered HCR between two hairpin DNA (H1 and H2) to form a long DNA concatamer. At last a large number of electroactive methyle blue (MB) molecules were assembled on the dsDNA concatamer, which generated a significantly amplified electrochemical signal. In the presence of ATP, the HCR would not be performed because the aptamer specifically bond to ATP and the electrochemical response would decrease. However, when ATP and PKA coexisted, the electrochemical response would recovery because that ATP had been translated into ADP by PKA. So the activity of PKA could be effectively monitored according to the change of electrochemical signal. Based on the HCR amplification strategy, the aptasensor showed a wide linear range (4 - 4 ×105 U L-1) and a low detection limit (1.5 U L-1) for the detection of PKA. Furthermore, the method was applied to study the inhibitory effect of H-89 on PKA activity. The developed aptasensor was also used to the analysis of drug-induced PKA activity in cell lysates, indicating the potential application of the developed method in the fields of clinical diagnostics and discovery of new targeted drugs.

Determination of protein kinase A activity and inhibition by using hydroxyapatite nanoparticles as a fluorescent probe. Mikrochim Acta 2018; 185:225.

Abstract
The authors describe a fluorometric method for the determination of the activity and inhibition of protein kinase A (PKA). In the presence of ATP, PKA catalyzes the transfer of phosphate groups from ATP to a peptide, and the generated phosphorylated peptide quenches the fluorescence (measured at excitation/emission peaks of 340/440 nm) of the hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (HAP-NPs). A linear logarithmic relationship of PKA concentrations with fluorescence intensity in the range from 1 to 50 U·L-1 was obtained, and the lower limit of detection (LOD) is 0.5 U·L-1. This is much lower than LODs reported in the literature. The PKA inhibitor H-89 was studied, and the inhibition plot has a sigmoidal shape with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration of around 750 nM of H-89. At a 4.5 nM level of H-89, fluorescence of HAP-NPs fell to levels of no PKA controls, demonstrating that the assay is a viable tool to screen for kinase inhibitors. An assay with Hela cell lysates in combination with forskolin (an activator of adenylyl cyclase) and IBMX (a phosphodiesterase inhibitor used to activate the cellular activity of PKA) resulted in decreased fluorescence of HAP-NPs. This suggests that the assay can be applied for testing in vitro cell kinase activity. In our perception, this method will enable high-throughput screening for kinase-related drugs and fluorometric enzymatic detection in various areas. Graphical abstract Fluorescence assay based on hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (HAP) fluorescence quenching was developed for analysis of the activity and inhibition of protein kinase A (PKA).

Abstract
This article presents a general method for the detection of protein kinase with a peptide-like kinase inhibitor as the bioreceptor, and it was done by converting gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)-based colorimetric assay into sensitive electrochemical analysis. In the colorimetric assay, the kinase-specific aptameric peptide triggered the aggregation of AuNPs in solution. However, the specific binding of peptide to the target protein (kinase) inhibited its ability to trigger the assembly of AuNPs. In the electrochemical analysis, peptides immobilized on a gold electrode and presented as solution triggered together the in situ formation of AuNPs-based network architecture on the electrode surface. Nevertheless, the formation of peptide-kinase complex on the electrode surface made the peptide-triggered AuNPs assembly difficult. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used to measure the change in surface property in the binding events. When a ferrocene-labeled peptide (Fc-peptide) was used in this design, the network of AuNPs/Fc-peptide produced a good voltammetric signal. The competitive assay allowed for the detection of protein kinase A with a detection limit of 20 mU/mL. This work should be valuable for designing novel optical or electronic biosensors and likely lead to many detection applications.
