Yes! We’ve done spot synthesis for high throughput interactomics this way - only covered a minority of candidates, and of course not fully physiological, but exciting results: www.cell.com/molecular-ce...
Evolutionary origins and interactomes of human, young microproteins and small peptides translated from short open reading frames
Sandmann et al. explore the evolution and interactomes of the smallest and evolutionarily youngest members of the human proteome. They identify previously unknown human short ORF-encoded microproteins...
