Phosphorylation at aspartic acid residues represents an abundant and critical post-translational modification (PTM) in prokaryotes. In contrast to most characterized PTMs, such as phosphorylation at serine or threonine, the phosphoaspartate moiety is intrinsically labile, and therefore incompatible with common proteomic profiling methods. Herein, we report a nucleophilic, desthiobiotin-containing hydroxylamine (DBHA) chemical probe that covalently labels modified aspartic acid residues in native ...[more]
