Hold your P's: Phosphorylated tyrosine and serine residues in peptides have been modified selectively by DNA catalysts (see graphic). These deoxyribozymes catalyze covalent attachment of an RNA tag to a range of peptide sequences, thus a proof of principle for a new approach to phosphopeptide analysis is established.
