Abstract
Click chemistry, also known as "link chemistry," is an important molecular connection method that can achieve simple and efficient connections between specific small molecular groups at the molecular level. Click chemistry offers several advantages, including high efficiency, good selectivity, mild conditions, and few side reactions. These features make it a valuable tool for in-depth analysis of various protein posttranslational modifications (PTMs) caused by changes in cell metabolism during viral infection. This chapter considers the palmitoylation, carbonylation, and alkylation of STING and presents detailed information and experimental procedures for measuring PTMs using click chemistry.
期刊介绍:
For over 20 years, biological scientists have come to rely on the research protocols and methodologies in the critically acclaimed Methods in Molecular Biology series. The series was the first to introduce the step-by-step protocols approach that has become the standard in all biomedical protocol publishing. Each protocol is provided in readily-reproducible step-by-step fashion, opening with an introductory overview, a list of the materials and reagents needed to complete the experiment, and followed by a detailed procedure that is supported with a helpful notes section offering tips and tricks of the trade as well as troubleshooting advice.
