요약 | A large number of pharmaceuticals, endogenous metabolites, and environmental chemicals act through covalent mechanisms with protein targets. Yet, their specific interactions with the proteome still remain poorly defined for most of these reactive chemicals. Deciphering direct protein targets of reactive small-molecules is critical in understanding their biological action, off-target effects, and potential toxicological liabilities, as well as for the development of safer and more selective chemical agents. Chemoproteomic technologies have arisen as a powerful strategy that enables the assessment of proteome-wide interactions of these irreversible agents directly in complex biological systems. In Chapter one, we review several chemoproteomic strategies that have facilitated our understanding of specific protein interactions of irreversibly-acting pharmaceuticals, endogenous metabolites, and environmental electrophiles to reveal novel pharmacological, biological, and toxicological mechanisms.The usefulness of chemoproteomic platforms in assessing the toxicity of environmental chemicals is further demonstrated in Chapter two |
