Tag! You′re it! MalAM-yne is a chemical reporter for malonylation of lysines within proteins (see scheme), a newly identified posttranslational modification. MalAM-yne is cell-permeable and metabolically incorporated into proteins in living cells. Subsequent bioorthogonal tag conjugation allows the fluorescent visualization of cellular malonylation and profiling of malonylated proteins.
