摘要
Active endogenous metabolites regulate the viability of cells. This process is controlled by a series ofinteractions between small metabolites and large proteins. Previously, several studies had reported thatmetabolite regulates the protein functions, such as diacylglycerol to protein kinase C, lactose regulationof the lac repressor, and HIF-1α stabilization by 2-hydroxyglutarate. However, decades old traditionalbiochemical methods are insufficient to systematically investigate the bio-molecular reactions for a high-throughput discovery. Here, we have reviewed an update on the recently developed chemical proteomicscalled activity-based protein profiling （ABPP）. ABPP is able to identify proteins interacted eithercovalently or non-covalently with metabolites significantly. Thus, ABPP will facilitate the characteriza-tion of specific metabolite regulating; proteins in human disease progression.
