Résumé
Polyphosphate (polyP) is a chain of inorganic phosphate that is present in all domains of life and affects diverse cellular phenomena, ranging from blood clotting to cancer. A study by Azevedo et al. described a protein modification whereby polyP is attached to lysine residues within polyacidic serine and lysine (PASK) motifs via what the authors claimed to be covalent phosphoramidate bonding. This was based largely on the remarkable ability of the modification to survive extreme denaturing conditions. Our study demonstrates that lysine polyphosphorylation is non-covalent, based on its sensitivity to ionic strength and lysine protonation and absence of phosphoramidate bond formation, as analyzed via
