Abstrakt: Carbon dioxide is an omnipresent gas that drives adaptive responses within organisms from all domains of life. The molecular mechanisms by which proteins serve as sensors of CO 2 are, accordingly, of great interest. Because CO 2 is electrophilic, one way it can modulate protein biochemistry is by carboxylation of the amine group of lysine residues. However, the resulting CO 2 -carboxylated lysines spontaneously decompose, giving off CO 2 , which makes studying this modification difficult. Here we describe a method to stably mimic CO 2 -carboxylated lysine residues in proteins. We leverage this method to develop a quantitative approach to identify CO 2 -carboxylated lysines of proteins and explore the lysine 'carboxylome' of the CO 2 -responsive cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. We uncover one CO 2 -carboxylated lysine within the effector binding pocket of the metabolic signaling protein PII. CO 2 -carboxylatation of this lysine markedly lowers the affinity of PII for its regulatory effector ligand ATP, illuminating a negative molecular control mechanism mediated by CO 2 .
