Protein O-mycoloylation is a unique post-translational lipidation that was recently discovered in Corynebacterium. We describe an alkyne-modified trehalose monomycolate chemical reporter that can metabolically tag O-mycoloylated proteins in C. glutamicum, enabling their detection and identification through click chemistry.
蛋白质O-分枝菌酰化是一种最近在棒状杆菌中发现的独特的翻译后脂化修饰。我们描述了一种炔烃修饰的海藻糖单分枝菌酸化学报告分子,它可以在谷氨酸棒杆菌中对O-分枝菌酰化的蛋白质进行代谢标记,从而通过点击化学实现对它们的检测和鉴定。
