Extracellular proteins play pivotal roles in both intracellular signaling and intercellular communications health disease. While recent advancements proximity labeling (PL) methods, such as peroxidase- photocatalyst-based approaches, have facilitated the resolution of extracellular proteomes, their vivo compatibility remains limited. Here, we report TyroID, an vivo-compatible PL method for unbiased mapping with high spatiotemporal resolution. TyroID employs plant- bacteria-derived tyrosinases to produce reactive o-quinone intermediates, enabling multiple residues on endogenous bioorthogonal handles, thereby allowing identification via chemical proteomics. We validate TyroID's specificity by proteomes HER2-neighboring using affibody-directed recombinant tyrosinases. Demonstrating its superiority over other enables including HER2-proximal tumor xenografts, quantifying turnover plasma hippocampal-specific live mouse brains. emerges a potent tool investigating protein localization molecular interactions within living organisms. is that maps through efficiently labels study interactions.

Peroxynitrite (ONOO–), the product of diffusion-controlled reaction superoxide (O2•–) with nitric oxide (NO•), plays a crucial role in oxidative and nitrative stress modulates key physiological processes such as redox signaling. While biological ONOO– is conventionally analyzed using 3-nitrotyrosine antibodies fluorescent sensors, probes lack specificity sensitivity, making high-throughput comprehensive profiling ONOO–-associated proteins challenging. In this study, we used conditional proteomics approach to investigate homeostasis by identifying its protein neighbors cells. We developed Peroxynitrite-responsive Labeling reagents (Porp-L) and, for first time, discovered 2,6-dichlorophenol an ideal moiety that can be selectively rapidly activated labeling proximal proteins. The Porp-L generated several short-lived reactive intermediates modify Tyr, His, Lys residues on surface. have demonstrated Porp-L-based immune-stimulated macrophages, which indeed identified known involved generation modification revealed endoplasmic reticulum (ER) hot spot.
