Olefin metathesis for site-selective protein modification

Abstract:

Site-selective protein modification has become an important tool to study protein functions in chemical biology. In the preliminary work, allyl sulfides were found to be reactive substrates in aqueous cross-metathesis (CM) enabling the first examples of protein modification via this approach. In order to access the enhanced CM reactivity of allyl sulfide on proteins, facile chemical methods to install S-allyl cysteine on protein surface were developed. In particular, a cysteine-specific al...
