Methionine has been recognized as an ideal target for labeling proteins without disturbing their tasks. However, exploration in single post‐transcriptional modification of methionine is sluggish. In this Highlight, we summarize some of the most exciting reports on the precise control of protein function by selectively modifying methionine residues.
