Mary,

    we have made thiophosphorylated peptides using the post-synthesis
thiophosphorylation strategy. I am not aware of any vendor that sells
thiophosphorylated amino acid derivatives for peptide synthesis. Here are
some references.

Chemical Synthesis of pS,pT,pY:

Kitas, E. et al. (1994). Int. J. Pep. Prot. Res. 43, 146-153
Tegge, W. (1994). Int. J. Pep. Prot. Res. 43, 448-453
Mora, N. et al. (1995). Int. J. Pep. Prot. Res. 45, 53-63

Chemcial Synthesis of pH:

Lasker, M. et al. (1999). Prot. Sci. 8, 2177-2185
Pirrung, M.C. et al. (2000). J. Org. Chem. 65, 8448-8453

Enzymatic Synthesis:

Cassel, D. and Glaser, L. (1982). PNAS 79, 2231-2235
Li et al. (1988). Meth. in Enzymol. 159, 346-356
