Activity-based proteomics

Activity-based proteomics, or activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) is a chemoproteomic strategy that employs modular probes to directly assess the functional state of enzymes within complex proteomes. Unlike expression-based proteomics, which measures protein abundance, ABPP provides information about catalytic activity, thereby enabling researchers to distinguish between active and inactive forms of enzymes.
