Protein methylation characterization using NMR without isotopic labeling

Protein methylation is crucial in epigenetics, and targeting the involved methyltransferases shows great potential for therapeutic intervention with several inhibitors in clinical trials for oncology indications. Therefore, characterization of protein methylation is essential for understanding the methyltransferase function and discovering chemical inhibitors and antagonists. While NMR has been used to measure methylation rates, isotopic labeling of protein or methyl donors can be costly and...
