N-terminal acetylation is a common modification with unclear function. Here, using multidimensional proteomics, the authors found that NatA-deficient yeast show increased ribosomal protein degradation and decreased ribosome thermostability, suggesting that N-terminal acetylation enhances proteome stability.
