Abstract

Rapid access to appropriately functionalized probes is crucial in chemical labeling approaches to target identification studies. We designed and synthesized clickable gold-nanoparticles as generic probe precursors that enable (1) one-step ligand derivatization by click chemistry, and (2) facile photoaffinity labeling application. Using cholesterol as a model ligand, we successfully demonstrated the utility of the ligand-clicked probe in photoaffinity labeling of endogenously expressed oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) in cell lysate.
