Abstract

We report a chemoselective and site-selective formylation of ε-amine in native proteins. The aldehyde auto-oxidation re-routing, regulated generation of formate, and reversible N-terminus protection drive the transformation. It labels a single ε-amine in a pool of its copies, other nucleophilic residues, and α-amine. The extension of the methodology leads to site-selective acylation.
