Try this:

import maya.cmds as cmds # defaultTextureList1 -- the lock node. cmds.lockNode('defaultTextureList1', l=False, lockUnpublished=False)

It's default node of Maya. You can find it from here：

import maya.cmds as cmds cmds.ls(defaultNodes=True)

Locking the default node can protect the node, but they will pollute Maya’s default environment.
If you open a wrong file, other files will have lock information when they resave.

import maya.cmds as cmds # unlock all dfault nodes [cmds.lockNode(i, l=False) for i in cmds.ls(defaultNodes=True)]
