Abstract
S-Nitrosylation is a reversible covalent post-translational modification. Under physiological conditions, S-nitrosylation plays a dynamic role in a wide range of biological processes by regulating the function of substrate proteins. Like other post-translational modifications, S-nitrosylation can affect protein conformation, activity, localization, aggregation, and protein interactions. Aberrant S-nitrosylation can lead to protein misfolding, mitochondrial fragmentation, synaptic damage, and autophagy. Mitochondria are essential organelles in energy production, metabolite biosynthesis, cell death, and immune responses, among other processes. Mitochondrial dysfunction can result in cell death and has been implicated in the development of many human diseases. Recent evidence suggests that S-nitrosylation and mitochondrial dysfunction are important modulators of the progression of several diseases. In this review, we highlight recent findings regarding the aberrant S- nitrosylation of mitochondrial proteins that regulate mitochondrial biosynthesis, fission and fusion, and autophagy. Specifically, we discuss the mechanisms by which S-nitrosylated mitochondrial proteins exercise mitochondrial quality control under pathological conditions, thereby influencing disease. A better understanding of these pathological events may provide novel therapeutic targets to mitigate the development of neurological diseases.

Abstract
Multiplexing enables the monitoring of hundreds to thousands of proteins in quantitative proteomics analyses and increases sample throughput. In most mass-spectrometry-based proteomics workflows, multiplexing is achieved by labeling biological samples with heavy isotopes via precursor isotopic labeling or isobaric tagging. Enhanced multiplexing strategies, such as combined precursor isotopic labeling and isobaric tagging (cPILOT), combine multiple technologies to afford an even higher sample throughput. Critical to enhanced multiplexing analyses is ensuring that analytical performance is optimal and that missingness of sample channels is minimized. Automation of sample preparation steps and use of quality control (QC) metrics can be incorporated into multiplexing analyses and reduce the likelihood of missing information, thus maximizing the amount of usable quantitative data. Here, we implemented QC metrics previously developed in our laboratory to evaluate a 36-plex cPILOT experiment that encompassed 144 mouse samples of various tissue types, time points, genotypes, and biological replicates. The evaluation focuses on the use of a sample pool generated from all samples in the experiment to monitor the daily instrument performance and to provide a means for data normalization across sample batches. Our results show that tracking QC metrics enabled the quantification of ∼7000 proteins in each sample batch, of which ∼70% had minimal missing values across up to 36 sample channels. Implementation of QC metrics for future cPILOT studies as well as other enhanced multiplexing strategies will help yield high-quality data sets.

Abstract
Redox post-translational modifications are derived from fluctuations in the redox potential and modulate protein function, localization, activity and structure. Amongst the oxidative reversible modifications, the S-glutathionylation of proteins was the first to be characterized as a post-translational modification, which primarily protects proteins from irreversible oxidation. However, a growing body of evidence suggests that S-glutathionylation plays a key role in core cell processes, particularly in mitochondria, which are the main source of reactive oxygen species. S-nitrosylation, another post-translational modification, was identified >150 years ago, but it was re-introduced as a prototype cell-signaling mechanism only recently, one that tightly regulates core processes within the cell’s sub-compartments, especially in mitochondria. S-glutathionylation and S-nitrosylation are modulated by fluctuations in reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and, in turn, orchestrate mitochondrial bioenergetics machinery, morphology, nutrients metabolism and apoptosis. In many neurodegenerative disorders, mitochondria dysfunction and oxidative/nitrosative stresses trigger or exacerbate their pathologies. Despite the substantial amount of research for most of these disorders, there are no successful treatments, while antioxidant supplementation failed in the majority of clinical trials. Herein, we discuss how S-glutathionylation and S-nitrosylation interfere in mitochondrial homeostasis and how the deregulation of these modifications is associated with Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Friedreich’s ataxia.

Abstract
Cellular redox homeostasis is precisely balanced by generation and elimination of reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS are not only capable of causing oxidation of proteins, lipids and DNA to damage cells but can also act as signaling molecules to modulate transcription factors and epigenetic pathways that determine cell survival and death. Hsp70 proteins are central hubs for proteostasis and are important factors to ameliorate damage from different kinds of stress including oxidative stress. Hsp70 members often participate in different cellular signaling pathways via their clients and cochaperones. ROS can directly cause oxidative cysteine modifications of Hsp70 members to alter their structure and chaperone activity, resulting in changes in the interactions between Hsp70 and their clients or cochaperones, which can then transfer redox signals to Hsp70-related signaling pathways. On the other hand, ROS also activate some redox-related signaling pathways to indirectly modulate Hsp70 activity and expression. Post-translational modifications including phosphorylation together with elevated Hsp70 expression can expand the capacity of Hsp70 to deal with ROS-damaged proteins and support antioxidant enzymes. Knowledge about the response and role of Hsp70 in redox homeostasis will facilitate our understanding of the cellular knock-on effects of inhibitors targeting Hsp70 and the mechanisms of redox-related diseases and aging.

Abstract
Ion mobility separations (IMS) have increasingly been coupled with mass spectrometry to increase peak capacity and deconvolute complex mass spectra in proteomics workflows. IMS separations can be integrated prior to or following the collisional activation step. Post-activation IMS separations have demonstrated many advantages, yet few instrument platforms are capable of this feat. Here, we present the fragmentation of peptide ions within a commercially available trapped-ion mobility spectrometry device. Fragmentation is initiated prior to mobility analysis enabling the separation of generated product ions. The added separation step deconvolutes product ion spectra and permits improved annotation of product ions. Furthermore, we demonstrate the isolation and fragmentation of mobility separated product ions with the downstream quadrupole and collisional cell. When applied to melittin and ubiquitin, this ion mobility assisted pseudo-MS3 fragmentation approach generates sequence coverage ∼50% greater than that of typical MS2 analyses. We envision this ion-mobility-assisted fragmentation technique as the foundation of a powerful new pseudo-MS3 workflow for application toward middle- or top-down proteomics.

Abstract
Oxidative stress appears to be a key feature of many neurodegenerative diseases either as a cause or consequence of disease. A range of molecules are subject to oxidation, but in particular, proteins are an important target and measure of oxidative stress. Proteins are subject to a range of oxidative modifications at reactive cysteine residues, and depending on the level of oxidative stress, these modifications may be reversible or irreversible. A range of experimental approaches has been developed to characterize cysteine oxidation of proteins. In particular, mass spectrometry-based proteomic methods have emerged as a powerful means to identify and quantify cysteine oxidation sites on a proteome scale; however, their application to study neurodegenerative diseases is limited to date. Here we provide a guide to these approaches and highlight the under-exploited utility of these methods to measure oxidative stress in neurodegenerative diseases for biomarker discovery, target engagement and to understand disease mechanisms.

Abstract
Water-soluble silver(II)-phthalocyanine complexes (AgPcs), tetrakis{4-(N-alkylpyridinium)thio}phthalocyaninato silver(II) tetrafluoroborate, [Ag(tRpySpc)](BF4)4, (R = Me and Et), have been synthesized for the first time by quaternization of pyridyl groups of tetrakis(4-pyridylthio)phthalocyaninato silver(II) by using Meerwein reagents and characterized by ESI-MS, elemental analyses, and optical absorption spectroscopy. Although they strongly aggregate in water, the presence of appropriate surfactants, such as polyethyleneglycol-monooleyl ether (n = approximately 50; PEG50) and sodium dodecyl sulfate, effectively disaggregates them to monomeric species. The spectral properties of the AgPcs and their aggregates in aqueous and nonaqueous solutions have been investigated by optical absorption, emission, and magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy. These AgPcs rapidly react with thiols such as cysteine, glutathione, homocysteine, and sodium 2-sulfanylethanesulfonate (even on the order of 0.01 mM) in aqueous PEG50 solutions at room temperature to liberate the corresponding macrocyclic ligand, H2Pc, but not with the other amino-acid analogs without sulfhydryl groups. The molar ratio of thiol to AgPc has been determined to be 1:1. Since AgPcs are essentially nonfluorescent at room temperature, while H2Pcs emit intense red fluorescence, AgPcs can be a potent thiol-sensor toward bioimaging.

Abstract
S-Nitrosylation (SNO) is a cysteine post-translational modification that increases with normal aging and is present in Alzheimer's disease and other aging-related illnesses. Detection of SNO-modified proteins can be challenging; however, we previously developed a robust quantitative proteomics approach termed "Oxidized Cysteine-Selective combined precursor isobaric labeling and isobaric tagging (OxcyscPILOT)" that allows for detection of endogenous SNO-modified proteins. OxcyscPILOT involves enrichment of SNO-modified proteins using a thiol-based resin. This enrichment is performed manually, and wash steps with the resin require numerous stages and buffer reagents. The goal of this study is to transfer the manual protocol to an automated liquid handler system in order to reduce wash steps, increase sample throughput, and minimize experimental error. In order to accomplish this, we evaluated the Biomek i7 liquid handler automated workstation and a Positive Pressure ALP (PPA) apparatus to conduct automated on-resin enrichment. Our findings provide starting pressure conditions for the use of PPA in an automated OxcyscPILOT proteomics workflow that could be transferred to other robotic liquid handling systems.

Abstract
Several novel silver(II) complexes ligating a tetra-substituted phthalocyaninate, [Ag(tbpc)] (where tbpc denotes tetra-tert-butylphthalocyaninate), [Ag(tppc)] (tppc = tetrakis(2,6-dimethylphenoxy)phthalocyaninate), [Ag(tObpc)] (tObpc = tetra-n-butoxyphthalocyaninate), and [Ag(tpySpc)] (tpySpc = tetrakis(4-pyridylthio)phthalocyaninate) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, MALDI-TOF MS, optical absorption, and magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectroscopy. Although all the compounds are well soluble in common organic solvents, concentration studies on their optical spectra in solutions have found that they are prone to strongly aggregate in a cofacial manner (i.e., H-aggregate). Silver(II) complexes, which are essentially non-fluorescent, are readily demetallated in the presence of appropriate reductant (e.g., I- or BH4-) to liberate the corresponding macrocyclic ligand, which emits intense red fluorescence. Chemical oxidation by using NOBF4 generates the corresponding silver(III) species.

Abstract
Quantitative proteomics has evolved considerably over the last decade with the advent of higher order multiplexing (HOM) techniques. With the development of methods such as-multitagging, cPILOT, hyperplexing, BONPlex, and MITNCAT, the HOM technique is rapidly taking the center stage in multiplexed quantitative proteomics. These studies combined MS1 and MS2 labels in a single experiment enabling higher sample throughput. While HOM is highly promising, the computational analysis is still a big challenge, as the available tools cannot harness its power completely. We have developed a new quantitative pipeline, HyperQuant to aid in accurately quantitating complex HOM data. The pipeline uses identification results from either MaxQuant or any other search engine and quantitation results from QuantWizIQ. The Mapper and Combiner modules of HyperQuant allow facile integration of the labeled data, along with peptide spectrum match (PSM) intensity/ratio integration for proteins, respectively, for each PSM label combination. This also includes appropriate combination of replicates/fractions before summarizing the protein intensity/ratio, leading to robust quantitation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first tool for the quantitation of HOM data with flexibility for any combination of MS1 and MS2 labels. We demonstrate its utility in analyzing two 18-plex data sets from the hyperplexing and the BONplex studies. The tool is open source and freely available for noncommercial use. HyperQuant is a highly valuable tool that will help in advancing the field of multiplexed quantitative proteomics.

Abstract
It is well established that both an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS: i.e. O2•-, H2O2 and OH•), as well as protein aggregation, accompany ageing and proteinopathies such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. However, it is far from clear whether there is a causal relation between the two. This review describes how protein aggregation can be affected both by redox signalling (downstream of H2O2), as well as by ROS-induced damage, and aims to give an overview of the current knowledge of how redox signalling affects protein aggregation and vice versa. Redox signalling has been shown to play roles in almost every step of protein aggregation and amyloid formation, from aggregation initiation to the rapid oligomerization of large amyloids, which tend to be less toxic than oligomeric prefibrillar aggregates. We explore the hypothesis that age-associated elevated ROS production could be part of a redox signalling-dependent-stress response in an attempt to curb protein aggregation and minimize toxicity.

Abstract
Combined precursor isotopic labeling and isobaric tagging (cPILOT) is an enhanced multiplexing strategy currently capable of analyzing up to 24 samples simultaneously. This capability is especially helpful when studying multiple tissues and biological replicates in models of disease, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). Here, cPILOT was used to study proteomes from heart, liver, and brain tissues in a late-stage amyloid precursor protein/presenilin-1 (APP/PS-1) human transgenic double-knock-in mouse model of AD. The original global cPILOT assay developed on an Orbitrap Velos instrument was transitioned to an Orbitrap Fusion Lumos instrument. The advantages of faster scan rates, lower limits of detection, and synchronous precursor selection on the Fusion Lumos afford greater numbers of isobarically tagged peptides to be quantified in comparison to the Orbitrap Velos. Parameters such as LC gradient, m/z isolation window, dynamic exclusion, targeted mass analyses, and synchronous precursor scan were optimized leading to >600 000 PSMs, corresponding to 6074 proteins. Overall, these studies inform of system-wide changes in brain, heart, and liver proteins from a mouse model of AD.

Abstract
The precise regulation of synaptic integrity is critical for neuronal network connectivity and proper brain function. Essential aspects of the activity and localization of synaptic proteins are regulated by posttranslational modifications. S-palmitoylation is a reversible covalent modification of the cysteine with palmitate. It modulates affinity of the protein for cell membranes and membranous compartments. Intracellular palmitoylation dynamics are regulated by crosstalk with other posttranslational modifications, such as S-nitrosylation. S-nitrosylation is a covalent modification of cysteine thiol by nitric oxide and can modulate protein functions. Therefore, simultaneous identification of endogenous site-specific proteomes of both cysteine modifications under certain biological conditions offers new insights into the regulation of functional pathways. Still unclear, however, are the ways in which this crosstalk is affected in brain pathology, such as stress-related disorders. Using a newly developed mass spectrometry-based approach Palmitoylation And Nitrosylation Interplay Monitoring (PANIMoni), we analyzed the endogenous S-palmitoylation and S-nitrosylation of postsynaptic density proteins at the level of specific single cysteine in a mouse model of chronic stress. Among a total of 813 S-PALM and 620 S-NO cysteine sites that were characterized on 465 and 360 proteins, respectively, we sought to identify those that were differentially affected by stress. Our data show involvement of S-palmitoylation and S-nitrosylation crosstalk in the regulation of 122 proteins including receptors, scaffolding proteins, regulatory proteins and cytoskeletal components. Our results suggest that atypical crosstalk between the S-palmitoylation and S-nitrosylation interplay of proteins involved in synaptic transmission, protein localization and regulation of synaptic plasticity might be one of the main events associated with chronic stress disorder, leading to destabilization in synaptic networks.

Abstract
Protein glycosylation is ubiquitous in biological systems and plays essential roles in many cellular events. Global and site-specific analysis of glycoproteins in complex biological samples can advance our understanding of glycoprotein functions and cellular activities. However, it is extraordinarily challenging because of the low abundance of many glycoproteins and the heterogeneity of glycan structures. The emergence of mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics has provided us an excellent opportunity to comprehensively study proteins and their modifications, including glycosylation. In this review, we first summarize major methods for glycopeptide/glycoprotein enrichment, followed by the chemical and enzymatic methods to generate a mass tag for glycosylation site identification. We next discuss the systematic and quantitative analysis of glycoprotein dynamics. Reversible protein glycosylation is dynamic, and systematic study of glycoprotein dynamics helps us gain insight into glycoprotein functions. The last part of this review focuses on the applications of MS-based proteomics to study glycoproteins in different biological systems, including yeasts, plants, mice, human cells, and clinical samples. Intact glycopeptide analysis is also included in this section. Because of the importance of glycoproteins in complex biological systems, the field of glycoproteomics will continue to grow in the next decade. Innovative and effective MS-based methods will exponentially advance glycoscience, and enable us to identify glycoproteins as effective biomarkers for disease detection and drug targets for disease treatment. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a debilitating dementia with complex pathophysiological alterations including modifications to endogenous cysteine. S-nitrosylation (SNO) is a well-studied posttranslational modification (PTM) in the context of AD while S-glutathionylation (PSSG) remains less studied. Excess reactive oxygen and reactive nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) directly or indirectly generate SNO and PSSG. SNO is dysregulated in AD and plays a pervasive role in processes such as protein function, cell signaling, metabolism, and apoptosis. Despite some studies into the role of SNO in AD, multiple identified SNO proteins lack deep investigation and SNO modifications outside of brain tissues are limited, leaving the full role of SNO in AD to be elucidated. PSSG homeostasis is perturbed in AD and may affect a myriad of cellular processes. Here we overview the role of nitric oxide (NO) in AD, discuss proteomic methodologies to investigate SNO and PSSG, and review SNO and PSSG in AD. A more thorough understanding of SNO, PSSG, and other cysteinyl PTMs in AD will be helpful for the development of novel therapeutics against neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
Multiplex isobaric tags have become valuable tools for high-throughput quantitative analysis of complex biological samples in discovery-based proteomics studies. Hybrid labeling strategies that pair stable isotope mass difference labeling with multiplex isobaric tag-based quantification further facilitate these studies by greatly increasing multiplexing capability. In this work, we present a cost-effective chemical labeling approach that couples duplex stable isotope dimethyl labeling with our custom 12-plex N,N-dimethyl leucine (DiLeu) isobaric tags in a combined precursor isotopic labeling and isobaric tagging (cPILOT) strategy that is compatible with a wide variety of biological samples and permits 24-plex quantification in a single LC-MS/MS experiment. We demonstrate the utility of the DiLeu cPILOT approach by labeling yeast digests and performing proof-of-principle quantification experiments on the Orbitrap Fusion Lumos.

Abstract
Protein S-nitrosylation is a cysteine post-translational modification mediated by nitric oxide. An increasing number of studies highlight S-nitrosylation as an important regulator of signaling involved in numerous cellular processes. Despite the significant progress in the development of redox proteomic methods, identification and quantification of endogeneous S-nitrosylation using high-throughput mass-spectrometry-based methods is a technical challenge because this modification is highly labile. To overcome this drawback, most methods induce S-nitrosylation chemically in proteins using nitrosylating compounds before analysis, with the risk of introducing nonphysiological S-nitrosylation. Here we present a novel method to efficiently identify endogenous S-nitrosopeptides in the macrophage total proteome. Our approach is based on the labeling of S-nitrosopeptides reduced by ascorbate with a cysteine specific phosphonate adaptable tag (CysPAT), followed by titanium dioxide (TiO2) chromatography enrichment prior to nLC-MS/MS analysis. To test our procedure, we performed a large-scale analysis of this low-abundant modification in a murine macrophage cell line. We identified 569 endogeneous S-nitrosylated proteins compared with 795 following exogenous chemically induced S-nitrosylation. Importantly, we discovered 579 novel S-nitrosylation sites. The large number of identified endogenous S-nitrosylated peptides allowed the definition of two S-nitrosylation consensus sites, highlighting protein translation and redox processes as key S-nitrosylation targets in macrophages.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry (MS) has become an increasingly important technique to analyze proteins. In popular bottom-up MS-based proteomics, reduction and alkylation are routine steps to facilitate peptide identification. However, incomplete reactions and side reactions may occur, which compromise the experimental results. In this work, we systematically evaluated the reduction step with commonly used reagents, i.e., dithiothreitol, 2-mercaptoethanol, tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine, or tris(3-hydroxypropyl)phosphine, and alkylation with iodoacetamide, acrylamide, N-ethylmaleimide, or 4-vinylpyridine. By using digested peptides from a yeast whole-cell lysate, the number of proteins and peptides identified were very similar using four different reducing reagents. The results from four alkylating reagents, however, were dramatically different with iodoacetamide giving the highest number of peptides with alkylated cysteine and the lowest number of peptides with incomplete cysteine alkylation and side reactions. Alkylation conditions with iodoacetamide were further optimized. To identify more peptides with cysteine, thiopropyl-sepharose 6B resins were used to enrich them, and the optimal conditions were employed for the reduction and alkylation. The enrichment resulted in over three times more cysteine-containing peptides than without enrichment. Systematic evaluation of the reduction and alkylation with different reagents can aid in a better design of bottom-up proteomic experiments.

Abstract
Protein S-sulfinylation (R-SO2-) and S-sulfonylation (R-SO3-) are irreversible oxidative post-translational modifications of cysteine residues. Greater than 5% of cysteines are reported to occupy these higher oxidation states, which effectively inactivate the corresponding thiols and alter the electronic and physical properties of modified proteins. Such higher oxidation states are reached after excessive exposure to cellular oxidants, and accumulate across different disease states. Despite widespread and functionally relevant cysteine oxidation across the proteome, there are currently no robust methods to profile higher order cysteine oxidation. Traditional data-dependent liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) methods generally miss low-occupancy modifications in complex analyses. Here, we present a data-independent acquisition (DIA) LC/MS-based approach, leveraging the high IR absorbance of sulfoxides at 10.6 μm, for selective dissociation and discovery of S-sulfonated peptides. Across peptide standards and protein digests, we demonstrate selective infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD) of S-sulfonated peptides in the background of unmodified peptides. This selective DIA IRMPD LC/MS-based approach allows identification and annotation of S-sulfonated peptides across complex mixtures while providing sufficient sequence information to localize the modification site.

Abstract
Protein thiols play a crucial role in redox signaling, in the regulation of enzymatic activity and protein function, and in maintaining redox homeostasis in living systems. The unique chemical reactivity of the thiol group makes protein cysteines susceptible to reactions with reactive oxygen and nitrogen species that form various reversible and irreversible post-translational modifications (PTMs). The reversible PTMs in particular are major components of redox signaling and are involved in the regulation of various cellular processes under physiological and pathological conditions. The biological significance of these redox PTMs in both healthy and disease states has been increasingly recognized. Herein, we review recent advances in quantitative proteomic approaches for investigating redox PTMs in complex biological systems, including general considerations of sample processing, chemical or affinity enrichment strategies, and quantitative approaches. We also highlight a number of redox proteomic approaches that enable effective profiling of redox PTMs for specific biological applications. Although technical limitations remain, redox proteomics is paving the way to a better understanding of redox signaling and regulation in both healthy and disease states.

Abstract
There is an increasing demand to analyze many biological samples for disease understanding and biomarker discovery. Quantitative proteomics strategies that allow simultaneous measurement of multiple samples have become widespread and greatly reduce experimental costs and times. Our laboratory developed a technique called combined precursor isotopic labeling and isobaric tagging (cPILOT), which enhances sample multiplexing of traditional isotopic labeling or isobaric tagging approaches. Global cPILOT can be applied to samples originating from cells, tissues, bodily fluids, or whole organisms and gives information on relative protein abundances across different sample conditions. cPILOT works by 1) using low pH buffer conditions to selectively dimethylate peptide N-termini and 2) using high pH buffer conditions to label primary amines of lysine residues with commercially-available isobaric reagents (see Table of Materials/Reagents). The degree of sample multiplexing available is dependent on the number of precursor labels used and the isobaric tagging reagent. Here, we present a 12-plex analysis using light and heavy dimethylation combined with six-plex isobaric reagents to analyze 12 samples from mouse tissues in a single analysis. Enhanced multiplexing is helpful for reducing experimental time and cost and more importantly, allowing comparison across many sample conditions (biological replicates, disease stage, drug treatments, genotypes, or longitudinal time-points) with less experimental bias and error. In this work, the global cPILOT approach is used to analyze brain, heart, and liver tissues across biological replicates from an Alzheimer's disease mouse model and wild-type controls. Global cPILOT can be applied to study other biological processes and adapted to increase sample multiplexing to greater than 20 samples.

Abstract
Cysteine is a highly reactive amino acid and is subject to a variety of reversible post-translational modifications (PTMs), including nitrosylation, glutathionylation, palmitoylation, as well as formation of sulfenic acid and disulfides. These modifications are not only involved in normal biological activities, such as enzymatic catalysis, redox signaling, and cellular homeostasis, but can also be the result of oxidative damage. Especially in aging and neurodegenerative diseases, oxidative stress leads to aberrant cysteine oxidations that affect protein structure and function leading to neurodegeneration as well as other detrimental effects. Methods that can identify cysteine modifications by type, including the site of modification, as well as the relative stoichiometry of the modification can be very helpful for understanding the role of the thiol proteome and redox homeostasis in the context of disease. Cysteine reversible modifications however, are challenging to investigate as they are low abundant, diverse, and labile especially under endogenous conditions. Thanks to the development of redox proteomic approaches, large-scale quantification of cysteine reversible modifications is possible. These approaches cover a range of strategies to enrich, identify, and quantify cysteine reversible modifications from biological samples. This review will focus on nongel-based redox proteomics workflows that give quantitative information about cysteine PTMs and highlight how these strategies have been useful for investigating the redox thiol proteome in aging and neurodegenerative diseases.
