Abstract: The present invention provides human protein arrays that include at least 1000 human proteins. In another embodiment, the present invention provides a method for identifying a substrate of an enzyme, comprising contacting the enzyme with a positionally addressable array comprising at least 100 proteins immobilized on functionalized glass surface, and identifying a protein on the positionally addressable array that is bound and/or modified by the enzyme, wherein a binding or modifying of the protein by the enzyme indicates that the protein is a substrate for the enzyme. In additional embodiments, provided herein are methods for making an array of at least 1000 human proteins under non-denaturing conditions, including human proteins that are difficult to express and/or difficult to isolate in a non-denatured state.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of conducting assays for enzymatic activity on microarrays useful for the large-scale study of protein function, screening assays, and high-throughput analysis of enzymatic reactions. The invention relates to methods of using protein chips to assay the presence, amount, activity and/or function of enzymes present in a protein sample on a protein chip. In particular, the methods of the invention relate to conducting enzymatic assays using a microarray wherein a protein and a substance are immobilized on the surface of a solid support and wherein the protein and the substance are in proximity to each other sufficient for the occurrence of an enzymatic reaction between the substance and the protein. The invention also relates to microarrays that have an enzyme and a substrate immobilized on their surface wherein the enzyme and the substrate are in proximity to each other sufficient for the occurrence of an enzymatic reaction between the enzyme and the substrate.
