Combinations of histone post-translational modifications. Biochem J 2021; 478:511-532.

Abstract
Histones are essential proteins that package the eukaryotic genome into its physiological state of nucleosomes, chromatin, and chromosomes. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of histones are crucial to both the dynamic and persistent regulation of the genome. Histone PTMs store and convey complex signals about the state of the genome. This is often achieved by multiple variable PTM sites, occupied or unoccupied, on the same histone molecule or nucleosome functioning in concert. These mechanisms are supported by the structures of ‘readers’ that transduce the signal from the presence or absence of PTMs in specific cellular contexts. We provide background on PTMs and their complexes, review the known combinatorial function of PTMs, and assess the value and limitations of common approaches to measure combinatorial PTMs. This review serves as both a reference and a path forward to investigate combinatorial PTM functions, discover new synergies, and gather additional evidence supporting that combinations of histone PTMs are the central currency of chromatin-mediated regulation of the genome.

Abstract
Membrane proteins on the cell surface perform a myriad of biological functions; however, ligand discovery for membrane proteins is highly challenging, because a natural cellular environment is often necessary to maintain protein structure and function. DNA-encoded chemical libraries (DELs) have emerged as a powerful technology for ligand discovery, but they are mainly limited to purified proteins. Here we report a method that can specifically label membrane proteins with a DNA tag, and thereby enable target-specific DEL selections against endogenous membrane proteins on live cells without overexpression or any other genetic manipulation. We demonstrate the generality and performance of this method by screening a 30.42-million-compound DEL against the folate receptor, carbonic anhydrase 12 and the epidermal growth factor receptor on live cells, and identify and validate a series of novel ligands for these targets. Given the high therapeutic significance of membrane proteins and their intractability to traditional high-throughput screening approaches, this method has the potential to facilitate membrane-protein-based drug discovery by harnessing the power of DEL.

Abstract
Ultrafast reversible DNA/RNA photo-cross-linking is a powerful tool for regulating the target strand in living cells. In particular, 3-cyanovinylcarbazole (CNVK) and 3-cyanovinylcarbazole modified by D-threoninol (CNVD) can photo-cross-link to pyrimidine bases within a few seconds of photoirradiation. However, these photo-cross-linkers can only cross-link to the counter base if it is adjacent to the 5'-side (-1 position). In this study, we synthesized novel photo-cross-linkers with varying linker lengths capable of photo-cross-linking with pyrimidine bases at locations other than the -1 position via click chemistry. The photo-cross-linking site was dependent on linker length.

Abstract
Lysine acetylation is a reversible post-translational modification (PTM) vastly employed in many biological events, including regulating gene expression and dynamic transitions in chromatin remodeling. We have developed the first one-pot bio-orthogonal flexizyme system in which both acetyl-lysine (AcK) and non-hydrolysable thioacetyl-lysine (ThioAcK) were site-specifically incorporated into human histone H3 and H4 at different lysine positions in vitro, either individually or in pairs. In addition, the high accuracy of this system moving toward one-pot synthesis of desired histone variants is also reported.

Identification of dual histone modification-binding protein interaction by combining mass spectrometry and isothermal titration calorimetric analysis. J Adv Res 2019; 22:35-46. [PMID: 31956440 PMCID: PMC6961217 DOI: 10.1016/j.jare.2019.11.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2019] [Revised: 10/29/2019] [Accepted: 11/10/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
The interaction between combinatorial histone modifications and tandem-domain reader proteins was identified. Four tandem-domain proteins (BPTF-PB, CBP-BP, TRIM24-PB, TAF1-BB) could read the peptides with dual-modifications. The binding affinities were detected by isothermal titration calorimetry. The interaction between BPTF-PB and peptides with PTMs is the strongest. The binding proteins to the tandem-domains were quantified. 78 enriched proteins were further characterized. The molecule network of “histone modification-reader-binding proteins” was analyzed.
Histone posttranslational modifications (HPTMs) play important roles in eukaryotic transcriptional regulation. Recently, it has been suggested that combinatorial modification codes that comprise two or more HPTMs can recruit readers of HPTMs, performing complex regulation of gene expression. However, the characterization of the multiplex interactions remains challenging, especially for the molecular network of histone PTMs, readers and binding complexes. Here, we developed an integrated method that combines a peptide library, affinity enrichment, mass spectrometry (MS) and bioinformatics analysis for the identification of the interaction between HPTMs and their binding proteins. Five tandem-domain-reader proteins (BPTF, CBP, TAF1, TRIM24 and TRIM33) were designed and prepared as the enriched probes, and a group of histone peptides with multiple PTMs were synthesized as the target peptide library. First, the domain probes were used to pull down the PTM peptides from the library, and then the resulting product was characterized by MS. The binding interactions between PTM peptides and domains were further validated and measured by isothermal titration calorimetry analysis (ITC). Meanwhile, the binding proteins were enriched by domain probes and identified by HPLC-MS/MS. The interaction network of histone PTMs-readers-binding complexes was finally analyzed via informatics tools. Our results showed that the integrated approach combining MS analysis with ITC assay enables us to understand the interaction between the combinatorial HPTMs and reading domains. The identified network of “HPTMs-reader proteins-binding complexes” provided potential clues to reveal HPTM functions and their regulatory mechanisms.

Abstract
Histone post-translational modifications (HPTMs) provide signaling platforms to recruit proteins or protein complexes (e.g., transcription factors, the so-called "readers" of the histone code), changing DNA accessibility in the regulation of gene expression. Thus, it is an essential task to identify HPTM readers for understanding of epigenetic regulation. Herein we designed and prepared a novel HPTM probe based on self-assembled multivalent photo-cross-linking technique for selective enrichment and identification of HPTM readers. By use of trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 4, we showcased that the functionalized HPTM probe was able to capture its reader with high enrichment efficiency and remarkable specificity even in a complex environment. Notably, this approach was readily applicable for exploring crosstalk among multiple HPTMs. Combining the probes with a mass spectrometry-based proteomic approach, our approach reached a fairly high coverage of known H3K4me3 readers. We further demonstrated that the HPTM probes can enrich a new type of HPTM readers and uncovered several novel putative binders of crotonylation of histone H3 lysine 9, expanding the repertoire of readers for this epigenetic mark. More broadly, our work provides a general strategy for rapid and robust interrogating HPTM readers and will be of great importance to elucidate epigenetic mechanism in regulating gene activity.
