Proteins are complex molecules that execute a vast array of functions necessary for the survival of organisms, and their functionality depends on their structure. Protein modification or post-translational modification is a biologically principal mechanism that plays a key role in diversifying protein functions, including cell signaling, localization, and interactions. Due to the critical effect of protein modification on numerous cellular functions, the precise identification of modification sites is fundamental to understanding cellular processes and disease pathogenesis.
