Mass Spectrometry-Based Protein Footprinting Defines the Binding Pocket of Crotonylated H3K14 in the PHD1 Domain of BAF45D within the BAF Chromatin Remodeling Complex. ACS BIO & MED CHEM AU 2024; 4:204-213. [PMID: 39184054 PMCID: PMC11342342 DOI: 10.1021/acsbiomedchemau.4c00009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2024] [Revised: 05/14/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 08/27/2024]
Abstract
The BRG-/BRM-associated factor (BAF) chromatin remodeling complex is a central actor in transcription. One mechanism by which BAF affects gene expression is via its various histone mark readers, including double plant homeodomains (DPF), located in the BAF45D subunit. DPF domains recognize lysine acetyl and acylations, including crotonylation, localized at promoters and enhancers. Despite a significant degree of conservation between DPF domains, attempts to crystallize BAF45D with a crotonylated histone 3 peptide (H3K14Cr) were unsuccessful. In addition, recent cryoEM and modeled structures failed to define the Req domain of BAF45D, which is responsible for reading lysine modifications. Thus, the precise mechanism of crotonyl group recognition and binding by BAF45D within the BAF complex remains unclear. We turned to protein footprinting mass spectrometry to map the binding interface between H3K14Cr and BAF45D. This technique is able to demarcate protein-binding interfaces by modifying surface-accessible residues and is not limited by protein size or composition. Experiments performed in the isolated DPF domain of BAF45D (BAF45DDPF)-delineated H3K14Cr peptide binding across the PHD1 and PHD2 pockets. We observed markedly similar effects on the BAF45D subunit when assessing H3K14Cr binding in the purified full BAF complex. The ATPase motor, BRM, also displayed H3K14Cr-protected peptides in two separate domains that were subsequently evaluated in direct binding assays. These data confirm the BAF45D-crotonylamide interaction within its obligate complex and are the first to demonstrate H3K14Cr direct binding to BRM.

Elucidating the clinical and molecular spectrum of SMARCC2-associated NDD in a cohort of 65 affected individuals. Genet Med 2023; 25:100950.

Abstract
PURPOSE Coffin-Siris and Nicolaides-Baraitser syndromes are recognizable neurodevelopmental disorders caused by germline variants in BAF complex subunits. The SMARCC2 BAFopathy was recently reported. Herein, we present clinical and molecular data on a large cohort. METHODS Clinical symptoms for 41 novel and 24 previously published affected individuals were analyzed using the Human Phenotype Ontology. For genotype-phenotype correlations, molecular data were standardized and grouped into non-truncating and likely gene-disrupting (LGD) variants. Missense variant protein expression and BAF-subunit interactions were examined using 3D protein modeling, co-immunoprecipitation, and proximity-ligation assays. RESULTS Neurodevelopmental delay with intellectual disability, muscular hypotonia, and behavioral disorders were the major manifestations. Clinical hallmarks of BAFopathies were rare. Clinical presentation differed significantly, with LGD variants being predominantly inherited and associated with mildly reduced or normal cognitive development, whereas non-truncating variants were mostly de novo and presented with severe developmental delay. These distinct manifestations and non-truncating variant clustering in functional domains suggest different pathomechanisms. In vitro testing showed decreased protein expression for N-terminal missense variants similar to LGD. CONCLUSION This study improved SMARCC2 variant classification and identified discernible SMARCC2-associated phenotypes for LGD and non-truncating variants, which were distinct from other BAFopathies. The pathomechanism of most non-truncating variants has yet to be investigated.
