Abstract
Owing to the encouraging pharmacological action and acceptable toxicity profile, Au(I) complexes have attracted growing interest in the application of disease treatment. In order to investigate their potential target proteins and related bioinformation, herein, we screened four Au(I) complexes and explored the binding proteins utilizing a competitive activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) strategy, including identification experiments and reactivity classification experiments, which offers a simple and robust method to identify the target proteins of Au(I) complexes. We quantified the target proteins of the four Au(I) complexes and found that most of proteins were associated with cancer. In addition, the newly Au(I)-binding proteins and biological gold-protein interaction pathways were exhibited. Furthermore, we estimated the correlation between target proteins of Au(I) complexes and various cancers, which will promote the development of the gold anticancer drugs.
