Limited choice of natural amino acids as mimetics restricts design of protein lysine methylation studies

Protein lysine methylation plays important biological roles but its experimental characterization is limited by the lack of suitable mimetics of methylated and unmethylated lysine among the natural amino acids. Here, we summarize the consequent challenges and discuss alternative approaches for bioch...
