α-Oxo aldehyde or glyoxylyl group chemistry in peptide bioconjugation

Since the 1990s, α-oxo aldehyde or glyoxylic acid chemistry has inspired a vast array of synthetic tools for tailoring peptide or protein structures, for developing peptides endowed with novel physicochemical properties or biological functions, for assembling a large diversity of bioconjugates or hybrid materials, or for designing peptide-based micro or nanosystems. This past decade, important developments have enriched the α-oxo aldehyde synthetic tool box in peptide bioconjugation chemistry and explored novel applications. The aim of this review is to give a large overview of this creative field.
