Abstract:
L-lactate has been recognized as an essential molecule for signaling and metabolic balance. Lactylation, a post-translational modification (PTM) derived from L-lactate, is commonly observed on various proteins and plays essential roles in cellular processes. Here, we present a protocol to globally profile the lactylation proteome and perform label-free quantification. We provide steps for cell preparation, protein extraction, digestion, peptide desalting, and lactylpeptide enrichment. Additionally, we outline the parameters for liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Li et al.1.
