Site-Specific Conversion of Cysteine in a Protein to Dehydroalanine Using 2-Nitro-5-Thiocyanatobenzoic Acid
Dehydroalanine exists natively in certain proteins and can also be chemically made from the protein cysteine. As a strong Michael acceptor, dehydroalanine in proteins has been explored to undergo reactions with different thiolate reagents for making close analogues of post-translational modification...
