Glycopeptide preparation is a critical step in bottom-up glycoproteomics. This study evaluated a streamlined and cost-effective method for N-glycopeptide preparation using commercially available magnetic particles. The method was evaluated for plasma/serum and tissue sample preparation, and N-glycopeptides that increased in cancer were identified in patients with gastric cancer.
