    Abstract Asparaginyl endopeptidases (AEPs) have recently been widely utilized for peptide and protein modification. Labeling is however restricted to protein termini, severely limiting flexibility and scope in creating diverse conjugates as needed for therapeutic and diagnostic applications. Here, we use genetic code expansion to site-specifically modify target proteins with an isopeptide-linked glycylglycine moiety that serves as an acceptor nucleophile in AEP-mediated transpeptidation with various probes containing a tripeptidic recognition motif. Our approach allows simple and flexible labeling of recombinant proteins at any internal site and leaves a minimal, entirely peptidic footprint (NGG) in the conjugation product. We show site-specific labeling of diverse target proteins with various biophysical probes, including dual labeling at an internal site and the N-terminus. Furthermore, we harness AEP-mediated transpeptidation for generation of ubiquitin- and ubiquitin-like-modifier conjugates bearing a native isopeptide bond and only one point mutation in the linker region.

    Abstract Approaches for profiling protease substrates are critical for defining protease functions, but remain challenging tasks. We combine genetic code expansion, photocrosslinking and proteomics to identify substrates of the mitochondrial (mt) human caseinolytic protease P (hClpP). Site-specific incorporation of the diazirine-bearing amino acid DiazK into the inner proteolytic chamber of hClpP, followed by UV-irradiation of cells, allows to covalently trap substrate proteins of hClpP and to substantiate hClpP's major involvement in maintaining overall mt homeostasis. In addition to confirming many of the previously annotated hClpP substrates, our approach adds a diverse set of new proteins to the hClpP interactome. Importantly, our workflow allows identifying substrate dynamics upon application of external cues in an unbiased manner. Identification of unique hClpP-substrate proteins upon induction of mt oxidative stress, suggests that hClpP counteracts oxidative stress by processing of proteins that are involved in respiratory chain complex synthesis and maturation as well as in catabolic pathways.
