The oxidation of the terminal amino-methylene groups of peptidyl-L-lysine or peptidyl-5-hydroxy-L-lysine to aldehyde groups to form allysine or hydroxyallysine residues, respectively; these are intermediates in the formation of covalent cross-links between adjacent polypeptide chains in proteins such as collagens. The alteration of an amino acid residue in a peptide. The modification of a protein amino acid by oxidation. The modification of peptidyl-lysine. The covalent alteration of one or more amino acids occurring in a protein after the protein has been completely translated and released from the ribosome.
