Tetranitromethane (TNM) has been found to be a specific, mild reagent for the nitration of tyrosyl residues of proteins at pH 8. Oxidation of cysteine, the only other amino acidaffected, can be differentiated by carrying out the reaction at pH 6 where tyrosine is not altered. By chromatography 3-nitrotyrosine has been identified as the product of the reaction of TNM with tyrosyl-containing peptides and proteins, resulting in an absorption band with a maximum at
