Context‐Dependence of the Reactivity of Cysteine and Lysine Residues

The S-alkylation of Cys residues with a maleimide and the Nϵ -acylation of Lys residues with an N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) ester are common methods for bioconjugation. Using Cys and Lys derivatives as proxies, we assessed differences in reactivity depending on the position of Cys or Lys in a protein...
