Abstract

Protein N- and C-termini have specific biochemical properties and functions. They play vital roles in various biological processes, such as protein stability and localization. In addition, post-translational modifications and proteolytic processing generate different proteoforms at protein termini. In recent years, terminomics has attracted significant attention, and numerous strategies have been developed to achieve high-throughput and global terminomics analysis. This review summarizes the recent protein N-termini and C-termini enrichment methods and their application in different samples. We also look ahead further application of terminomics in profiling protease substrates and discovery of disease biomarkers and therapeutic targets.
