Abstract: Methods and compositions are described for analyzing complex protein mixtures using fluorescent activity-based probes. In particular, probes that specifically react with and bind to the active form of one or more target proteins are employed. Fluorescent signals obtained from the labeled active target proteins can be related to the presence or amount of active members of the desired target protein class. The methods and compositions described herein can be used, for example, to provide diagnostic information concerning pathogenic states, in identifying proteins that may act as therapeutic targets, and in drug discovery.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for analyzing proteomes, as cells or lysates. The analysis is based on the use of probes that have specificity to the active form of proteins, particularly enzymes and receptors. The probes can be identified in different ways. In accordance with the present invention, a method is provided for generating and screening compound libraries that are used for the identification of lead molecules, and for the parallel identification of their biological targets. By appending specific functionalities and/or groups to one or more binding moieties, the reactive functionalities gain binding affinity and specificity for particular proteins and classes of proteins. Such libraries of candidate compounds, referred to herein as activity-based probes, or ABPs, are used to screen for one or more desired biological activities or target proteins.
