New themed collection on ‘Chemical Proteomics’

A slide summarising the information in this blog post, with images of the two Guest Editors

We’re pleased to announce that a new themed collection from RSC Chemical Biology on Chemical Proteomics has now been published online.

Read the collection

This collection, Guest Edited by Dr Keriann Backus (UCLA, USA) and Dr Stephan Hacker (Leiden University, Netherlands), highlights work on applications of chemoproteomics to study the targets and off-targets of covalent and non-covalent inhibitors, to study the reactivity of amino acids in the proteome, to develop new reactive groups for photocrosslinkers, covalent inhibitors and protein labeling as well as to study post-translational modifications and cofactor binding proteome-wide.

A listing of the articles has been provided below. All articles in RSC Chemical Biology are open access and free to read.
