Smart polymer binders targeting protein phosphorylation and methylation

To develop polymer binders in assays that fulfill stringent precision medicine requirements in terms of robustness, reproducibility, scalability, affinity, multiplexing capability, and solvent compatibility. Using a special group of polymers called molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), we foresee this kind of imprinting approach to be broadly applicable paving the way for robust, low-cost multiplex assays of phosphorylated and methylated proteins compatible with clinical proteomics platforms.
