Abstract
Protein lipoylation, a crucial post-translational modification (PTM), plays a pivotal role in mitochondrial function and emerges as a key player in cell death through cuproptosis. This novel copper-driven cell death pathway is activated by excessive copper ions binding to lipoylated mitochondrial proteins, disrupting energy production and causing lethal protein aggregation and cell death. The intricate relationship among protein lipoylation, cellular energy metabolism, and cuproptosis offers a promising avenue for regulating essential cellular functions. This review focuses on the mechanisms of lipoylation and its significant impact on cell metabolism and cuproptosis, emphasizing the key genes involved and their implications for human diseases. It offers valuable insights into targeting dysregulated cellular metabolism for therapeutic purposes.

Abstract
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) endow proteins with new properties to respond to environmental changes or growth needs. With the development of advanced proteomics techniques, hundreds of distinct types of PTMs have been observed in a wide range of proteins from bacteria, archaea, and eukarya. To identify the roles of these PTMs, scientists have applied various approaches. However, high dynamics, low stoichiometry, and crosstalk between PTMs make it almost impossible to obtain homogeneously modified proteins for characterization of the site-specific effect of individual PTM on target proteins. To solve this problem, the genetic code expansion (GCE) strategy has been introduced into the field of PTM studies. Instead of modifying proteins after translation, GCE incorporates modified amino acids into proteins during translation, thus generating site-specifically modified proteins at target positions. In this review, we summarize the development of GCE systems for orthogonal translation for site-specific installation of PTMs.

Abstract
Activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) is a powerful chemical approach for probing protein function and enzymatic activity in complex biological systems. This strategy typically utilizes activity-based probes that are designed to bind a specific protein, amino acid residue, or protein family and form a covalent bond through a reactivity-based warhead. Subsequent analysis by mass spectrometry-based proteomic platforms that involve either click chemistry or affinity-based labeling to enrich for the tagged proteins enables identification of protein function and enzymatic activity. ABPP has facilitated elucidation of biological processes in bacteria, discovery of new antibiotics, and characterization of host-microbe interactions within physiological contexts. This review will focus on recent advances and applications of ABPP in bacteria and complex microbial communities.

Abstract
Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent chronic joint disease with an obscure underlying molecular signature. Cuproptosis plays a crucial role in various biological processes. However, the association between cuproptosis-mediated immune infifiltration and OA progression remains unexplored. Therefore, this study elucidates the pathological process and potential mechanisms underlying cuproptosis in OA by constructing a columnar line graph model and performing consensus clustering analysis. Methods Gene expression profifile datasets GSE12021, GSE32317, GSE55235, and GSE55457 of OA were obtained from the comprehensive gene expression database. Cuproptosis signature genes were screened by random forest (RF) and support vector machine (SVM). A nomogram was developed based on cuproptosis signature genes. A consensus clustering was used to distinguish OA patients into different cuproptosis patterns. To quantify the cuproptosis pattern, a principal component analysis was developed to generate the cuproptosis score for each sample. Single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) was used to provide the abundance of immune cells in each sample and the relationship between these significant cuproptosis signature genes and immune cells.To quantify the cuproptosis pattern, a principal component analysis technique was developed to generate the cuproptosis score for each sample. Cuproptosis-related genes were extracted and subjected to differential expression analysis to construct a disease prediction model and confifirmed by RT-qPCR. Results Seven cuproptosis signature genes were screened (DBT, LIPT1, GLS, PDHB, FDX1, DLAT, and PDHA1) to predict the risk of OA disease. A column line graph model was developed based on these seven cuproptosis signature genes, which may assist patients based on decision curve analysis. A consensus clustering method was used to distinguish patients with disorder into two cuproptosis patterns (clusters A and B). To quantify the cuproptosis pattern, a principal component analysis technique was developed to generate the cuproptosis score for each sample. Furthermore, the OA characteristics of patients in cluster A were associated with the inflflammatory factors IL-1b, IL-17, IL-21, and IL-22, suggesting that the cuproptosis signature genes play a vital role in the development of OA. Discussion In this study, a risk prediction model based on cuproptosis signature genes was established for the fifirst time, and accurately predicted OA risk. In addition, patients with OA were classifified into two cuproptosis molecule subtypes (clusters A and B); cluster A was highly associated with Th17 immune responses, with higher IL-1b, IL-17, and IL-21 IL-22 expression levels, while cluster B had a higher correlation with cuproptosis. Our analysis will help facilitate future research related cuproptosis-associated OA immunotherapy. However, the specifific mechanisms remain to be elucidated.

Abstract
Copper, a transition metal, serves as an essential co-factor in numerous enzymatic active sites and constitutes a vital trace element in the human body, participating in crucial life-sustaining activities such as energy metabolism, antioxidation, coagulation, neurotransmitter synthesis, iron metabolism, and tetramer deposition. Maintaining the equilibrium of copper ions within biological systems is of paramount importance in the prevention of atherosclerosis and associated cardiovascular diseases. Copper induces cellular demise through diverse mechanisms, encompassing reactive oxygen species responses, apoptosis, necrosis, pyroptosis, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Recent research has identified and dubbed a novel regulatory cell death modality-"cuprotosis"-wherein copper ions bind to acylated proteins in the tricarboxylic acid cycle of mitochondrial respiration, resulting in protein aggregation, subsequent downregulation of iron-sulfur cluster protein expression, induction of proteotoxic stress, and eventual cell death. Scholars have synthesized copper complexes by combining copper ions with various ligands, exploring their significance and applications in cancer therapy. This review comprehensively examines the multiple pathways of copper metabolism, copper-induced regulatory cell death, and the current status of copper complexes in cancer treatment.

Abstract
The development of novel anti-infectives requires unprecedented strategies targeting pathways which are solely present in pathogens but absent in humans. Following this principle, we developed inhibitors of lipoic acid (LA) salvage, a crucial pathway for the survival of LA auxotrophic bacteria and parasites but non-essential in human cells. An LA-based probe was selectively transferred onto substrate proteins via lipoate protein ligase (LPL) in intact cells, and their binding sites were determined by mass spectrometry. Probe labeling served as a proxy of LPL activity, enabling in situ screenings for cell-permeable LPL inhibitors. Profiling a focused compound library revealed two substrate analogs (LAMe and C3) as inhibitors, which were further validated by binding studies and co-crystallography. Importantly, LAMe exhibited low toxicity in human cells and achieved killing of Plasmodium falciparum in erythrocytes with an EC50 value of 15 μM, making it the most effective LPL inhibitor reported to date.

Abstract
Regulated Cell Death (RCD) is a mode of cell death that occurs through drug or genetic intervention. The regulation of RCDs is one of the significant reasons for the long survival time of tumor cells and poor prognosis of patients. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) which are involved in the regulation of tumor biological processes, including RCDs occurring on tumor cells, are closely related to tumor progression. In this review, we describe the mechanisms of eight different RCDs which contain apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, NETosis, entosis, ferroptosis, autosis and cuproptosis. Meanwhile, their respective roles in the tumor are aggregated. In addition, we outline the literature that is related to the regulatory relationships between lncRNAs and RCDs in tumor cells, which is expected to provide new ideas for tumor diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) occurring on lysine residues, especially diverse forms of acylations, have seen rapid growth over the past two decades. Among them, lactylation and β-hydroxybutyrylation of lysine side-chains are newly identified histone marks and their implications in physiology and diseases have aroused broad research interest. Meanwhile, lysine lipoylation is highly conserved in diverse organisms and well known for the pivotal role in central metabolic pathways, and recent findings in the proteomic profiling of protein lipoylation have nonetheless suggested a pressing need for an extensive investigation. For both basic and applied research, it is highly necessary to prepare PTM-bearing proteins particularly in a site-specific manner. Herein, we use genetic code expansion to site-specifically generate these lysine PTMs, including lactylation, β-hydroxybutyrylation and lipoylation in proteins in E. coli and mammalian cells. Notably using strategies including activity-based selection, screening and rational design, unique pyrrolysyl-tRNA synthetase variants were successfully evolved for each of the three non-canonical amino acids and enable efficient production of recombinant proteins, thus holding promise to benefit relevant studies. Through encoding these ncAAs, we examined the deacylase activities of mammalian sirtuins to these modifications, and importantly unfold lipoamidase activity of several sirtuins.

Abstract
Cofactors are required for almost half of all enzyme reactions, but their functions and binding partners are not fully understood even after decades of research. Functionalised cofactor mimics that bind in place of the unmodified cofactor can provide answers, as well as expand the scope of cofactor activity. Through chemical proteomics approaches such as activity-based protein profiling, the interactome and localisation of the native cofactor in its physiological environment can be deciphered and previously uncharacterised proteins annotated. Furthermore, cofactors that supply functional groups to substrate biomolecules can be hijacked by mimics to site-specifically label targets and unravel the complex biology of post-translational protein modification. The diverse activity of cofactors has inspired the design of mimics for use as inhibitors, antibiotic therapeutics, and chemo- and biosensors, and cofactor conjugates have enabled the generation of novel enzymes and artificial DNAzymes.

Abstract
Protein lipoylation is an evolutionarily conserved post-translational modification from prokaryotes to eukaryotes. Lipoylation is implicated with several human diseases, including metabolic disorders, cancer, and Alzheimer's disease. While individual lipoylated proteins have been biochemically studied, a strategy for globally quantifying lipoylation with site-specific resolution in proteomes is still lacking. Herein, we developed a butyraldehyde-alkynyl probe to specifically label and enrich lipoylations in complexed biological samples. Combined with a chemoproteomic pipeline using customized tandem enzyme digestions and a biotin enrichment tag with enhanced ionization, we successfully quantified all known lipoylation sites in both Escherichia coli (E. coli) and human proteomes. The strategy enabled us to dissect the dependence of three evolutionarily related lipoylation sites in dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase (ODP2) in E. coli and evaluated the functional connection between the de novo lipoylation synthetic pathway and the salvage pathway. Our chemoproteomic platform provides a useful tool to monitor the state of lipoylation in proteome samples, which will help decipher molecular mechanisms of lipoylation-related diseases.

Abstract
Lipoic acid (LA) is an organic compound that plays a key role in cellular metabolism. It participates in a posttranslational modification (PTM) named lipoylation, an event that is highly conserved and that occurs in multimeric metabolic enzymes of very distinct microorganisms such as Plasmodium sp. and Staphylococcus aureus, including pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) and α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase (KDH). In this mini review, we revisit the recent literature regarding LA metabolism in Plasmodium sp. and Staphylococcus aureus, by covering the lipoate ligase proteins in both microorganisms, the role of lipoate ligase proteins and insights for possible inhibitors of lipoate ligases.

Abstract
Here, we reported the compendium of protein lysine modifications (CPLM 4.0, http://cplm.biocuckoo.cn/), a data resource for various post-translational modifications (PTMs) specifically occurred at the side-chain amino group of lysine residues in proteins. From the literature and public databases, we collected 450 378 protein lysine modification (PLM) events, and combined them with the existing data of our previously developed protein lysine modification database (PLMD 3.0). In total, CPLM 4.0 contained 592 606 experimentally identified modification events on 463 156 unique lysine residues of 105 673 proteins for up to 29 types of PLMs across 219 species. Furthermore, we carefully annotated the data using the knowledge from 102 additional resources that covered 13 aspects, including variation and mutation, disease-associated information, protein-protein interaction, protein functional annotation, DNA & RNA element, protein structure, chemical-target relation, mRNA expression, protein expression/proteomics, subcellular localization, biological pathway annotation, functional domain annotation, and physicochemical property. Compared to PLMD 3.0 and other existing resources, CPLM 4.0 achieved a >2-fold increase in collection of PLM events, with a data volume of ∼45GB. We anticipate that CPLM 4.0 can serve as a more useful database for further study of PLMs.
