N-terminal acetylation, catalysed by N-terminal acetyltransferases (Nats), is one of the most prevalent protein modifications and is implicated in human diseases. Yet, despite extensive COFRADIC-based proteomics, only [~]5-10% of the proteome has been interrogated, leaving the majority of the Nt-acetylome unexplored. Here, we combined all major COFRADIC datasets with sel-TRAP, a high-sensitivity, orthogonal approach for profiling co-translational Nat targets via selective ribosome purification. This integrated analysis refined the substrate specificities of NatA, NatB, and NatC/E/F and provided the most comprehensive view to date of the canonical human and yeast Nt-acetylomes. Importantly, we also uncovered hundreds of cryptic Nat substrates arising from alternative translation initiation, with unexpected Nt-proteoforms constituting a previously underappreciated source of Nat targets. Collectively, our results revealed the complex landscape of a "dark" Nt-acetylome, the characterization of which, including its functional roles in regulating protein function and in disease, remains a major challenge for future research.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
