Abstract

Surfing with the kinase: A soluble kinase phosphorylates an immobilized peptide substrate most rapidly at the boundary between product and substrate, and gives rise to a "wave" of propagating product. Such systems offer an approach to engineering reactions to give spatio-temporal control over progression of reactions.
