AzGGK is a novel site-specific probe for ubiquitylation and sumoylation, allowing the site-specific attachment of ubls to nonrefoldable, multidomain proteins and enabling inducible and ubiquitin-ligase-independent ubiquitylation of proteins in mammalian cells | [Uses]
AzGGK is an unnatural amino acid. AzGGK is site-specifically incorporated into proteins via genetic-code expansion. AzGGK can be used as site-specific probe for ubiquitylation and SUMOylation[1]. AzGGK is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Azide group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction (CuAAc) with molecules containing Alkyne groups. It can also undergo strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) reactions with molecules containing DBCO or BCN groups. | [References]
