Imprinted polymers displaying high affinity for sulfated protein fragments

Abstract

Leaving a lasting impression: Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) featuring neutral binding sites for phosphotyrosine (P) is also shown to have affinity for sulfotyrosine (S) and a sulfotyrosine-containing peptide. The MIPs were capable of selectively capturing both a phosphorylated and a sulfated peptide in a mixture and could release the peptides separately based on elution conditions
