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<sub>2</sub> are, accordingly, of great interest. Because CO<sub>2</sub> is electrophilic, one way it can modulate protein biochemistry is by carboxylation of the amine group of lysine residues. However, the resulting CO<sub>2</sub>-carboxylated lysines spontaneously decompose, giving off CO<sub>2</sub>, which makes studyi ...[more]
