Abstract

Aspartic proteases are a small class of proteases implicated in a wide variety of human diseases. Covalent chemical probes for photoaffinity labeling (PAL) of these proteases are underdeveloped. We here report a full on-resin synthesis of clickable PAL probes based on the natural product inhibitor pepstatin incorporating a minimal diazirine reactive group. The position of this group in the inhibitor determines the labeling efficiency. The most effective probes sensitively detect cathepsin D, a biomarker for breast cancer, in cell lysates. Moreover, through chemical proteomics experiments and deep learning algorithms, we identified sequestosome-1, an important player in autophagy, as a direct interaction partner and substrate of cathepsin D. |
