NO2-Alkyne

NO2-alkyne is a linear C-nucleophile based chemoselective probe for detecting sulfenylated proteins.

Highlights:

  • Carbon nucleophile consisting of a (phenylsulfonyl)nitromethane warhead coupled to an alkyne moiety by a 4-atom spacer
  • (phenylsulfonyl)nitromethane group selectively and irreversibly reacts with sulfenic acid to give a stable thioether adduct (t1/2 = 5 days in 5 mM DTT)
  • Alkyne group can then be detected using azide-bearing tags by standard click chemistry
  • Shows >40-fold enhanced reactivity (compared to dimedone) towards a peptide based small molecule sulfenic acid model

Mild oxidation can convert the sulfhydryl group of cysteine residues on proteins to cysteine-sulfenic acid derivatives (Cys-SOH). Protein sulfenylation is a post-translational modification that is relevant to redox signaling. NO2-alkyne shows more than 40-fold enhanced reactivity (compared to dimedone) towards a peptide based small molecule sulfenic acid model.
