Application

MST-alkyne is a probe that can be used to label cysteines through nucleophilic aromatic substitution. A method was developed using cysteine-reactive compounds including this one to allow for unbiased analysis of proteomic data in quantitative applications . The method uses light or heavy labeling with the isotopically labelled desthiobiotin azide (isoDTB) tag for mass spectrometry analysis . Analysis then uses the isotopic tandem orthogonal proteolysis activity-based protein profiling (isoTOP-ABPP) workflow .

Cysteine is the most intrinsically nucleophilic amino acid in proteins, where its reactivity is tuned to perform diverse biochemical functions. The absence of a consensus sequence that defines functional cysteines in proteins has hindered their discovery and characterization. Here we

Small molecules are powerful tools for investigating protein function and can serve as leads for new therapeutics. Most human proteins, however, lack small-molecule ligands, and entire protein classes are considered 'undruggable'. Fragment-based ligand discovery can identify small-molecule probes for proteins
