Methods for selective covalent modification of amino acids on proteins can enable a diverse array of applications, spanning probes and modulators of protein function to proteomics<sup>1-3</sup>. Owing to their high nucleophilicity, cysteine and lysine residues are the most common points of attachment for protein bioconjugation chemistry through acid-base reactivity<sup>3,4</sup>. Here we report a redox-based strategy for bioconjugation of tryptophan, the rarest amino acid, using oxaziridine reag ...[more]
