What an extraordinary joy it is to finally be able to share this work with the world. If any of you are excited by chemoproteomics or new tools on the covalent warhead toolbox I think this paper may be right up your alley 💕
Is arginine the new cysteine?! Check out our lab's latest in collaboration with @ianseiple.bsky.social's team where we introduce ninhydrin as a selective covalent warhead and probe targeting reactive arginines.

Ninhydrin as a covalent warhead for chemical proteomic-enabled discovery and selective engagement of reactive arginines
Covalent molecules have emerged as next-generation therapeutics and as powerful tools for perturbing fundamental biological processes. Chemical proteomic methods to screen for reactive proteinaceous a...
