Abstract
Proteomics is a powerful method to comprehensively understand cellular posttranslational modifications (PTMs). Owing to low abundance, tryptic peptides with PTMs are usually enriched for enhanced coverage by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Affinity chromatography for phosphoproteomes by metal-oxide and pan-specific antibodies for lysine acetylome allow identification of tens of thousands of modification sites. Lysine methylation is a significant PTM; however, only hundreds of methylation sites were identified by available approaches. Herein we report an aryl diazonium based chemoselective strategy that enables enrichment of monomethyllysine (Kme1) peptides through covalent bonds with extraordinary sensitivity. We identified more than 10000 Kme1 peptides from diverse cell lines and mouse tissues, which implied a wide lysine methylation impact on cellular processes. Furthermore, we found a significant amount of methyl marks that were not S-adenosyl methionine (SAM)-dependent by isotope labeling experiments.
