Lysosomes, known for degrading biomolecules and damaged cellular components, are now recognized as signaling hubs for nutrient sensing and metabolic adaptation, and their dysfunction is implicated in diseases including cancer and neurodegeneration. To understand the composition of the lysosome, the dynamic behavior of its contents, and its specific roles in health and disease, we describe a lysosomal immunoprecipitation method, termed “LysoIP,” that enables the isolation of intact lysosomes from cultured cells and mouse tissues. This method utilizes a lysosome-localized 3xHA epitope tag (LysoTag) and a simple, yet robust organelle immunoprecipitation workflow. Isolated lysosomes are extracted with optimized buffers to allow the efficient retrieval of lysosomal proteins, polar metabolites, and lipids, maintaining compatibility with downstream liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analyses.

摘要

Lysosomes, known for degrading biomolecules and damaged cellular components, are now recognized as signaling hubs for nutrient sensing and metabolic adaptation, and their dysfunction is implicated in diseases including cancer and neurodegeneration. To understand the composition of the lysosome, the dynamic behavior of its contents, and its specific roles in health and disease, we describe a lysosomal immunoprecipitation method, termed “LysoIP,” that enables the isolation of intact lysosomes from cultured cells and mouse tissues. This method utilizes a lysosome-localized 3xHA epitope tag (LysoTag) and a simple, yet robust organelle immunoprecipitation workflow. Isolated lysosomes are extracted with optimized buffers to allow the efficient retrieval of lysosomal proteins, polar metabolites, and lipids, maintaining compatibility with downstream liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analyses.
