Title	The impact of commonly used alkylating agents on artefactual peptide modification
Description	Iodoacetamide is by far the most commonly used agent for alkylation of cysteine during sample preparation for proteomics. An alternative, 2-chloroacetamide, has been recently suggested to reduce the alkylation of residues other than cysteine, such as the N-terminus, Asp, Glu, Lys, Ser, Thr and Tyr. Here, we show that although 2-chloroacetamide reduces the level of off-target alkylation, it exhibits a range of adverse effects. The most significant of these was methionine oxidation, which increases to a maximum of 40% of all Met containing peptides compared to 2-5% with iodoacetamide. Increases were also observed for mono and dioxidised tryptophan. No additional differences between the alkylating reagents were observed for a range of other post-translational modifications and digestion parameters. The adverse impact of 2-chloroacetamide on methionine oxidation suggest it is not the ideal alkylating reagent for proteomics.
