Glutarylation, which is a newly identified posttranslational modification that occurs on lysine residues, has recently emerged as an important regulator of several metabolic and mitochondrial processes. However, the specific sites of modification on individual proteins, as well as the extent of glutarylation throughout the proteome, remain largely uncharacterized. Though informative, proteomic approaches based on mass spectrometry can be expensive, technically challenging and time-consuming.

Protein S-sulfenylation, which results from oxidation of free thiols on cysteine residues, has recently emerged as an important post-translational modification that regulates the structure and function of proteins involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. By altering the size and physiochemical properties of modified cysteine residues, sulfenylation can impact the cellular function of proteins in several different ways. Thus, the ability to rapidly and accurately identify putative sulfenylation sites in proteins will provide important insights into redox-dependent regulation of protein function in a variety of cellular contexts.
