Systematic Engineering of a Protein Nanocage for High-Yield, Site-Specific Modification

Orthogonal site-specific protein modification by engineering reversible thiol protection mechanisms.

Covalent modification is an important strategy for introducing new functions into proteins. As engineered proteins become more sophisticated, it is often desirable to introduce multiple, modifications involving several different functionalities in a site-specific manner. Such orthogonal labeling schemes require independent labeling of differentially reactive nucleophilic amino acid side chains....

Enabling Wittig reaction on site-specific protein modification.

An efficient aqueous Wittig reaction was enabled on protein bioconjugation for the first time. By investigating the reaction on small molecules, peptides, and proteins, a site-specific reaction targeting "aldehyde tag" was presented. A variety of functional groups could be introduced into the protein of interest.

Olefin metathesis for site-selective protein modification.

For a reaction to be generally useful for protein modification, it must be site-selective and efficient under conditions compatible with proteins: aqueous media, low to ambient temperature, and at or near neutral pH. To engineer a reaction that satisfies these conditions is not a simple task. Olefin metathesis is one of most useful reactions for carbon-carbon bond formation, but does it fit the...
