Abstract
Cp2Fe-mediated electrochemical synthesis of phosphorylated indoles and Trp-containing oligopeptides has been developed, which eliminates the need for external oxidants and yields the desired products in moderate to excellent yields under mild conditions. Importantly, the synthetic applicability was further demonstrated through its easy scalability and the anticancer activity of the product. Remarkably, it presents the first electrochemical protocol to access the phosphorylation of indoles and Trp-containing oligopeptides.

Abstract
Proteins are multifunctional large organic compounds that constitute an essential component of a living system. Hence, control over their bioconjugation impacts science at the chemistry-biology-medicine interface. A chemical toolbox for their precision engineering can boost healthcare and open a gateway for directed or precision therapeutics. Such a chemical toolbox remained elusive for a long time due to the complexity presented by the large pool of functional groups. The precise single-site modification of a protein requires a method to address a combination of selectivity attributes. This review focuses on guiding principles that can segregate them to simplify the task for a chemical method. Such a disintegration systematically employs a multi-step chemical transformation to deconvolute the selectivity challenges. It constitutes a disintegrate (DIN) theory that offers additional control parameters for tuning precision in protein bioconjugation. This review outlines the selectivity hurdles faced by chemical methods. It elaborates on the developments in the perspective of DIN theory to demonstrate simultaneous regulation of reactivity, chemoselectivity, site-selectivity, modularity, residue specificity, and protein specificity. It discusses the progress of such methods to construct protein and antibody conjugates for biologics, including antibody-fluorophore and antibody-drug conjugates (AFCs and ADCs). It also briefs how this knowledge can assist in developing small molecule-based covalent inhibitors. In the process, it highlights an opportunity for hypothesis-driven routes to accelerate discoveries of selective methods and establish new targetome in the precision engineering of proteins and antibodies.

Abstract
Protein bioconjugates are in high demand for applications in biomedicine, diagnostics, chemical biology and bionanotechnology. Proteins are large and sensitive molecules containing multiple different functional groups and in particular nucleophilic groups. In bioconjugation reactions it can therefore be challenging to obtain a homogeneous product in high yield. Numerous strategies for protein conjugation have been developed, of which a vast majority target lysine, cysteine and to a lesser extend tyrosine. Likewise, several methods that involve recombinantly engineered protein tags have been reported. In recent years a number of methods have emerged for chemical bioconjugation to other amino acids and in this review, we present the progress in this area.

Abstract
Bioconjugation reactions play a central facilitating role in engendering modified peptides and proteins. Early progress in this area was inhibited by challenges such as the limited range of substrates and the relatively poor biocompatibility of bioconjugation reagents. However, the recent developments in visible-light induced photoredox catalysis and electrochemical catalysis reactions have permitted significant novel reactivities to be developed in the field of synthetic and bioconjugation chemistry. This perspective describes recent advances in the use of biocompatible energy input for the modification of peptides and proteins mainly, via the single electron transfer (SET) process, as well as key future developments in this area.

Abstract
To conduct organic synthesis in the field of pharmaceutical science, methodologies that can easily and quickly supply compounds with high drug-likeness are highly desirable. Based on the original catalyst design concept "Radical-Conjugated Redox Catalysis (RCRC)" established during my research, various C(sp3)-H functionalizations and protein modifications have been developed, taking advantage of the high reactivity and chemoselectivity of the single-electron transfer process. This review focuses on the eight-year research efforts by my collaborators and me, from conception to results.

Abstract
Alternative translation initiation mechanisms such as leaky scanning and reinitiation potentiate the polycistronic nature of human transcripts. By allowing for reprogrammed translation, these mechanisms can mediate biological responses to stimuli. We combined proteomics with ribosome profiling and mRNA sequencing to identify the biological targets of translation control triggered by the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 1 (eIF1), a protein implicated in the stringency of start codon selection. We quantified expression changes of over 4000 proteins and 10 000 actively translated transcripts, leading to the identification of 245 transcripts undergoing translational control mediated by upstream open reading frames (uORFs) upon eIF1 deprivation. Here, the stringency of start codon selection and preference for an optimal nucleotide context were largely diminished leading to translational upregulation of uORFs with suboptimal start. Interestingly, genes affected by eIF1 deprivation were implicated in energy production and sensing of metabolic stress.

Abstract
An interesting asset of diagonal chromatography, which we have introduced for contemporary proteome research, is its high versatility concerning proteomic applications. Indeed, the peptide modification or sorting step that is required between consecutive peptide separations can easily be altered and thereby allows for the enrichment of specific, though different types of peptides. Here, we focus on the application of diagonal chromatography for the study of modifications of plant proteins. In particular, we show how diagonal chromatography allows for studying proteins processed by proteases, protein ubiquitination, and the oxidation of protein-bound methionines. We discuss the actual sorting steps needed for each of these applications and the obtained results. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Plant Proteomics--a bridge between fundamental processes and crop production, edited by Dr. Hans-Peter Mock.

Abstract
Given the ease of whole genome sequencing with next-generation sequencers, structural and functional gene annotation is now purely based on automated prediction. However, errors in gene structure are frequent, the correct determination of start codons being one of the main concerns. Here, we combine protein N termini derivatization using (N-Succinimidyloxycarbonylmethyl)tris(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)phosphonium bromide (TMPP Ac-OSu) as a labeling reagent with the COmbined FRActional DIagonal Chromatography (COFRADIC) sorting method to enrich labeled N-terminal peptides for mass spectrometry detection. Protein digestion was performed in parallel with three proteases to obtain a reliable automatic validation of protein N termini. The analysis of these N-terminal enriched fractions by high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry allowed the annotation refinement of 534 proteins of the model marine bacterium Roseobacter denitrificans OCh114. This study is especially efficient regarding mass spectrometry analytical time. From the 534 validated N termini, 480 confirmed existing gene annotations, 41 highlighted erroneous start codon annotations, five revealed totally new mis-annotated genes; the mass spectrometry data also suggested the existence of multiple start sites for eight different genes, a result that challenges the current view of protein translation initiation. Finally, we identified several proteins for which classical genome homology-driven annotation was inconsistent, questioning the validity of automatic annotation pipelines and emphasizing the need for complementary proteomic data. All data have been deposited to the ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD000337.

Abstract
The oxidative stress response is characterized by various effects on a range of biologic molecules. When examined at the protein level, both expression levels and protein modifications are altered by oxidative stress. While these effects have been studied in the past by classic biochemical methods, the recent onset of proteomics methods has allowed the oxidative stress response to be studied on a much wider scale. The input of proteomics in the study of oxidative stress response and in the evidence of an oxidative stress component in biologic phenomena is reviewed in this paper.

Abstract
RATIONALE Cleavage of peptide bonds C-terminal to tyrosine and tryptophan after electrochemical oxidation may become a complementary approach to chemical and enzymatic cleavage. A chemical labeling approach specifically targeting reactive cleavage products is presented here and constitutes a promising first step towards the development of a new proteomics workflow. METHODS Hexylamine was used to react with the spirolactone moieties generated after electrochemical oxidation and cleavage of tripeptides. The influence of pH and reaction time on the yield was determined and the excess of tagging reagent was optimized. Selective detection of the tagged cleavage products was achieved by precursor ion scanning in a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer. RESULTS Optimal labeling was reached under aqueous conditions when working at pH 10 with a reaction time of 0.5 min. The excess of hexylamine over spirolactone groups can be significantly decreased by working under non-aqueous conditions in pure acetonitrile to prevent spirolactone hydrolysis. The specific formation of hexylamine-containing y(1) reporter ions generated by collision-induced dissociation (CID) tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) allows for selective detection by precursor ion scanning of the cleaved and labeled peptides. CONCLUSIONS This work presents a method for selective labeling and detection of electrochemically cleaved Tyr- and Trp-containing peptides for which reaction conditions have been optimized with hexylamine as labeling agent. This workflow offers new possibilities for electrochemical oxidation, cleavage and labeling of peptides and proteins.

Abstract
Fractionation of complex samples at the cellular, subcellular, protein, or peptide level is an indispensable strategy to improve the sensitivity in mass spectrometry-based proteomic profiling. This study revisits, evaluates, and compares the most common gel-based protein separation techniques i.e. 1D SDS-PAGE, 1D preparative SDS-PAGE, IEF-IPG, and 2D-PAGE in their performance as fractionation approaches in nano LC-ESI-MS/MS analysis of a mixture of protein standards and mitochondrial extracts isolated from rat liver. This work demonstrates that all the above techniques provide complementary protein identification results, but 1D SDS-PAGE and IEF-IPG had the highest number of identifications. The IEF-IPG technique resulted in the highest average number of detected peptides per protein. The 2D-PAGE was evaluated as a protein fractionation approach. This work shows that the recovery of proteins and resulting proteolytic digests is highly dependent on the total volume of the gel matrix. The performed comparison of the fractionation techniques demonstrates the potential of a combination of orthogonal 1D SDS-PAGE and IEF-IPG for the improved sensitivity of profiling without significant decrease in throughput.

Proteins have the potential to undergo a variety of post-translational modifications and the different methods available to study these cellular processes has advanced rapidly with the continuing development of proteomic technologies. In this review we aim to detail five major post-translational modifications (phosphorylation, glycosylaion, lipid modification, ubiquitination and redox-related modifications), elaborate on the techniques that have been developed for their analysis and briefly discuss the study of these modifications in selected areas of plant science.

Abstract
We report a novel two-dimensional (2D) separation strategy aimed at improving the detectability of liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) for metabolome analysis. It is based on the use of ion-pairing (IP) reversed-phase (RP) LC as the first dimension separation to fractionate the metabolites, followed by isotope labeling of individual fractions using dansylation chemistry to alter the physiochemical properties of the metabolites. The labeled metabolites having different hydrophobicity from their unlabeled counterparts are then separated and analyzed by on-line RPLC Fourier-transform ion-cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR-MS). This off-line 2D-LC-MS strategy offers significant improvement over the one-dimensional (1D) RPLC MS technique in terms of the number of detectable metabolites. As an example, in the analysis of a human urine sample, 3564 ¹³C-/¹²C-dansylated ion pairs or metabolites were detected from seven IP RPLC fractions, compared to 1218 metabolites found in 1D-RPLC-MS. Using a library of 220 amine- and phenol-containing metabolite standards, 167 metabolites were positively identified based on retention time and accurate mass matches, which was about 2.5 times the number metabolites identified by 1D-RPLC-MS analysis of the same urine sample.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disorder characterized by chronic inflammation of the lung with airflow obstruction and progressive deterioration of pulmonary function. The need to discover and validate biomarkers as prognostic tools of development and progression of the disease has received further support with the advent of proteomic techniques. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC/MS) and gel electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (2-DE/MS) have been applied to investigate the proteome of a number of lung-origin samples, including sputum, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, exhaled-breath condensate, cells and biopsies from COPD patients. In particular, 2-DE and MS are the main proteomic approaches with 2-DE presenting the major approach for quantitative proteomics. The molecules identified as potential biomarkers of COPD may represent a preliminary step for better comprehension of the mechanisms involved in the onset/progression of the disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The addition of an acetyl group to protein N-termini is a widespread co-translational modification. NatB is one of the main N-acetyltransferases that targets a subset of proteins possessing an N-terminal methionine, but so far only a handful of substrates have been reported. Using a yeast nat3Δ strain, deficient for the catalytic subunit of NatB, we employed a quantitative proteomics strategy to identify NatB substrates and to characterize downstream effects in nat3Δ. RESULTS Comparing by proteomics WT and nat3Δ strains, using metabolic 15N isotope labeling, we confidently identified 59 NatB substrates, out of a total of 756 detected acetylated protein N-termini. We acquired in-depth proteome wide measurements of expression levels of about 2580 proteins. Most remarkably, NatB deletion led to a very significant change in protein phosphorylation. CONCLUSIONS Protein expression levels change only marginally in between WT and nat3Δ. A comparison of the detected NatB substrates with their orthologous revealed remarkably little conservation throughout the phylogenetic tree. We further present evidence of post-translational N-acetylation on protein variants at non-annotated N-termini. Moreover, analysis of downstream effects in nat3Δ revealed elevated protein phosphorylation levels whereby the kinase Snf1p is likely a key element in this process.

Abstract
Oxidation of proteins and peptides is a common phenomenon, and can be employed as a labeling technique for mass-spectrometry-based proteomics. Nonspecific oxidative labeling methods can modify almost any amino acid residue in a protein or only surface-exposed regions. Specific agents may label reactive functional groups in amino acids, primarily cysteine, methionine, tyrosine, and tryptophan. Nonspecific radical intermediates (reactive oxygen, nitrogen, or halogen species) can be produced by chemical, photochemical, electrochemical, or enzymatic methods. More targeted oxidation can be achieved by chemical reagents but also by direct electrochemical oxidation, which opens the way to instrumental labeling methods. Oxidative labeling of amino acids in the context of liquid chromatography(LC)-mass spectrometry (MS) based proteomics allows for differential LC separation, improved MS ionization, and label-specific fragmentation and detection. Oxidation of proteins can create new reactive groups which are useful for secondary, more conventional derivatization reactions with, e.g., fluorescent labels. This review summarizes reactions of oxidizing agents with peptides and proteins, the corresponding methodologies and instrumentation, and the major, innovative applications of oxidative protein labeling described in selected literature from the last decade.

Abstract
Chlorobium tepidum is a Gram-negative bacterium of the green sulfur phylum (Chlorobia). Chlorobia are obligate anaerobic photolithoautotrophs that are widely distributed in aquatic environments where anoxic layers containing reduced sulfur compounds are exposed to light. The envelope of C. tepidum is a complex organelle composed of the outer membrane, the periplasm-peptidoglycan layer, and the cytoplasmic membrane. In addition to the outer and plasma membranes, C. tepidum contains chlorosomes attached to the cytoplasmic side of the plasma membrane. Each cellular compartment has a unique set of proteins, called sub-proteome. An important aim of proteome analysis is to study the level of the expressed genes and their response to environmental changes. Membrane protein studies are of primary importance to understand how nutrients are transported inside the cell, how toxic molecules are exported, and the mechanisms of photosynthesis and energy metabolism.

Abstract
N-terminal processing of proteins is a process affecting a large part of the eukaryotic proteome. Although N-terminal processing is an essential process, not many large inventories are available, in particular not for human proteins. Here we show that by using dedicated mass spectrometry-based proteomics techniques it is possible to unravel N-terminal processing in a semicomprehensive way. Our multiprotease approach led to the identification of 1391 acetylated human protein N termini in HEK293 cells and revealed that the role of the penultimate position on the cleavage efficiency by the methionine aminopeptidases is essentially conserved from Escherichia coli to human. Sequence analysis and comparisons of amino acid frequencies in the data sets of experimentally derived N-acetylated peptides from Drosophila melanogaster, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Halobacterium salinarum showed an exceptionally higher frequency of alanine residues at the penultimate position of human proteins, whereas the penultimate position in S. cerevisiae and H. salinarum is predominantly a serine. Genome-wide comparisons revealed that this effect is not related to protein N-terminal processing but can be traced back to characteristics of the genome.

Abstract
Proteolysis is one of the most important post-translational modifications of the proteome with every protein undergoing proteolysis during its synthesis and maturation and then upon inactivation and degradation. Extracellular proteolysis can either activate or inactivate bioactive molecules regulating physiological and pathological processes. Therefore, it is important to develop non-biased high-content screens capable of identifying the substrates for a specific protease. This characterization can also be useful for identifying the nodes of intersection between a protease and cellular pathways and so aid in the detection of drug targets. Classically, biochemical methods for protease substrate screening only discover what can be cleaved but this is often not what is actually cleaved in vivo. We suggest that biologically relevant protease substrates can be best found by analysis of proteolysis in a living cellular context, starting with a proteome that has never been exposed to the activity of the examined protease. Therefore, protease knockout cells form a convenient and powerful system for these screens. We describe a method for identification and quantification of shed and secreted cleaved substrates in cell cultures utilizing the cell metabolism as a labelling system. SILAC (stable isotope labelling by amino acids) utilises metabolic incorporation of stable isotope-labelled amino acids into living cells. As a model system to develop this approach, we chose the well-characterised matrix metalloproteinase, MMP-2, because of its importance in tumour metastasis and a large database of MMP substrates with which to benchmark this new approach. However, the concepts can be applied to any extracellular or cell membrane protease. Generating differential metabolically labelled proteomes is one key to the approach; the other is the use of a negative peptide selection procedure to select for cleaved N-termini in the N-terminome. Using proteomes exposed or not to a particular protease enables biologically relevant substrates and their cleavage sites to be identified and quantified by tandem mass spectrometry proteomics and database searching.

Abstract
Proteomics is an essential source of information about biological systems because it generates knowledge about the concentrations, interactions, functions, and catalytic activities of proteins, which are the major structural and functional determinants of cells. In the last few years significant technology development has taken place both at the level of data analysis software and mass spectrometry hardware. Conceptual progress in proteomics has made possible the analysis of entire proteomes at previously unprecedented density and accuracy. New concepts have emerged that comprise quantitative analyses of full proteomes, database-independent protein identification strategies, targeted quantitative proteomics approaches with proteotypic peptides and the systematic analysis of an increasing number of posttranslational modifications at high temporal and spatial resolution. Although plant proteomics is making progress, there are still several analytical challenges that await experimental and conceptual solutions. With this review I will highlight the current status of plant proteomics and put it into the context of the aforementioned conceptual progress in the field, illustrate some of the plant-specific challenges and present my view on the great opportunities for plant systems biology offered by proteomics.

Abstract
False positive peptide identifications are a major concern in the field of peptidecentric, mass spectrometry-driven gel-free proteomics. They occur in regions where the score distributions of true positives and true negatives overlap. Removal of these false positive identifications necessarily involves a trade-off between sensitivity and specificity. Existing postprocessing tools typically rely on a fixed or semifixed set of assumptions in their attempts to optimize both the sensitivity and the specificity of peptide and protein identification using MS/MS spectra. Because of the expanding diversity in available proteomics technologies, however, these postprocessing tools often struggle to adapt to emerging technology-specific peculiarity. Here we present a novel tool named Peptizer that solves this adaptability issue by making use of pluggable assumptions. This research-oriented postprocessing tool also includes a graphical user interface to perform efficient manual validation of suspect identifications for optimal sensitivity recovery. Peptizer is open source software under the Apache2 license and is written in Java.

Abstract
Numerous gel-free proteomics techniques have been reported over the past few years, introducing a move from proteins to peptides as bits of information in qualitative and quantitative proteome studies. Many shotgun proteomics techniques randomly sample thousands of peptides in a qualitative and quantitative manner but overlook the vast majority of protein modifications that are often crucial for proper protein structure and function. Peptide-based proteomic approaches have thus been developed to profile a diverse set of modifications including, but not at all limited, to phosphorylation, glycosylation and ubiquitination. Typical here is that each modification needs a specific, tailor-made analytical procedure. In this minireview, we discuss how one technique - diagonal reverse-phase chromatography - is applied to study two different types of protein modification: protein processing and protein N-glycosylation. Additionally, we discuss an activity-based proteome study in which purine-binding proteins were profiled by diagonal chromatography.

Abstract
Since the introduction of the proteome term somewhat more than a decade ago the field of proteomics witnessed a rapid growth mainly fueled by instrumental analytical improvements. Of particular notice is the advent of a diverse set of gel-free proteomics techniques. In this review, we discuss several of these gel-free techniques both for monitoring protein concentration changes and protein modifications, in particular protein phosphorylation, glycosylation, and protein processing. Furthermore, different approaches for (multiplexed) gel-free proteome analysis are discussed.

Abstract
We describe a protocol for selective extraction of the amino (N)-terminal-most peptide of a protein or a mixture of proteins after proteolysis. The first stage of the protocol blocks the free amino groups alpha and epsilon (the latter being lysyl residues) on the intact proteins by acetylation. In the second stage, proteolysis of the acetylated proteins yields a mixture of N-terminally acetylated (true N-terminal) and non-acetylated (internal and carboxy-terminal) peptides. Affinity capture of peptides bearing free amino groups using an immobilized amine-reactive reagent removes internal peptides from the mixture. The unbound fraction is highly enriched in N-terminal peptides, which can be analyzed without further treatment. This method is compatible with a range of proteolytic enzymes and fragmentation methods, and should take 2 d to complete. The N-terminal peptides can then be analyzed by mass spectrometry. This low cost, rapid method is readily adopted using off the shelf reagents.

Abstract
Proteomics is defined as an analysis of the full complement of proteins of a cell or tissue under given conditions. Avian proteomics, or more specifically chicken proteomics, has focussed on the study of individual tissues and organs of interest to specific researchers. Researchers have looked at skeletal muscle and growth, and embryonic development and have performed initial studies in avian disease. Traditional proteomics involves identifying and cataloguing proteins in a cell and identifying relative changes in populations between two or more states, be that physiological or disease-induced states. Recent advances in proteomic technologies have included absolute quantification, proteome simplification and the ability to determine the turnover of individual proteins in a global context. This review discusses the current developments in this relatively new field, new technologies and how they may be applied to biological questions, and the challenges faced by researchers in this ever-expanding and exciting field.

Abstract
A method for the selective modification of tryptophan residues based on the reaction of malondialdehyde with the indole nitrogen of the tryptophan side chain at acidic conditions is presented. The condensation reaction is quantitative and leads to a substituted acrolein moiety with a remaining reactive aldehyde group. As is shown, this group can be further converted to a hydrazone using hydrazide compounds, but if hydrazine or phenylhydrazine are used, release of the free indole group is observed upon cleavage of the substitution. Alternatively, secondary amines such as pyrrolidine may also act as cleavage reagents. This general reaction scheme has been adapted and optimized for the derivatization of tryptophan-containing peptides and small N-heterocyclic compounds. It serves as the basis of a reversible tagging scheme for Trp-peptides or molecules of interest carrying indole structures as it allows the specific attachment and removal of a reactive group that may be used for a variety of purposes such as affinity tagging.

Abstract
The derivatization of cysteine-containing peptides with benzoquinone compounds is rapid, quantitative and specific in acidic media. The conversion of cysteines into hydrophobic benzoquinone-adducted residues in peptides is used here to alter the chromatographic properties of cysteinyl peptides during liquid chromatography separation. The benzoquinone derivatization is shown to allow the accurate selection of cysteine-containing peptides of bovine serum albumin tryptic digest by diagonal reversed-phase chromatography, which consists of one primary and a series of secondary identical liquid chromatographic separations, before and after a cysteinyl-targeted modification of the peptides by benzoquinone compounds.

Abstract
A method for the selective enrichment of tryptophan-containing peptides from complex peptide mixtures such as protein digests is presented. It is based on the reversible reaction of tryptophan with malondialdehyde and trapping of the derivatized Trp-peptides on hydrazide beads via the free aldehyde group of the modified peptides. The peptides are subsequently recovered in their native form by specific cleavage reactions for further (mass spectrometric) analysis. The method was optimized and evaluated using a tryptic digest of a mixture of 10 model proteins, demonstrating a significant reduction in sample complexity while still allowing the identification of all proteins. The applicability of the tryptophan-specific enrichment procedure to complex biological samples is demonstrated for a total yeast cell lysate. Analysis of the processed fraction by 1D-LC-MS/MS confirms the specificity of the enrichment procedure, as more than 85% of the peptides recovered from the enrichment step contained tryptophan. The reduction in sample complexity also resulted in the identification of additional proteins in comparison to the untreated lysate.
