Abstract
The assignment of molecular and cellular functions to the numerous protein products encoded by prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes presents a major challenge for the field of proteomics. To address this problem, chemical approaches have been introduced that utilize smallβmolecule probes to profile dynamics in enzyme activity in complex proteomes. These strategies for activityβbased protein profiling enable both the discovery and functional analysis of enzymes associated with human disease.

The principles of enzyme chemistry, mechanism of action and inhibitor design are being applied to proteomics by the development of activity-based probes. This approach suggests a potentially broad method for interrogating enzyme family members, both known and unknown, in cells and proteomic fraction
