Activity based protein profiling (ABPP) is a functional proteomic technology that uses chemical probes to detect mechanistically related classes of enzymes. Chemically probing a certain class of proteins helps to understand their biological function as a group, and discover new biosynthetic pathways for drug design. This research describes two activity based proteomic methods that have been developed to probe and identify sulfur carrier proteins and vitamin B6 dependent proteins, respectively. Sulfur carrier proteins are small proteins (<10 kDa) involved in pathways for efficient sulfur delivery. A chemical probe with sulfonyl-azide functional group was designed to label and identify the sulfur carrier proteins through a thioacid-azide rea...
