Abstract
The intricate protein-chaperone network is vital for cellular function. Recent discoveries have unveiled the existence of specialized chaperone complexes called epichaperomes, protein assemblies orchestrating the reconfiguration of protein-protein interaction networks, enhancing cellular adaptability and proliferation. This study delves into the structural and regulatory aspects of epichaperomes, with a particular emphasis on the significance of post-translational modifications in shaping their formation and function. A central finding of this investigation is the identification of specific PTMs on HSP90, particularly at residues Ser226 and Ser255 situated within an intrinsically disordered region, as critical determinants in epichaperome assembly. Our data demonstrate that the phosphorylation of these serine residues enhances HSP90's interaction with other chaperones and co-chaperones, creating a microenvironment conducive to epichaperome formation. Furthermore, this study establishes a direct link between epichaperome function and cellular physiology, especially in contexts where robust proliferation and adaptive behavior are essential, such as cancer and stem cell maintenance. These findings not only provide mechanistic insights but also hold promise for the development of novel therapeutic strategies targeting chaperone complexes in diseases characterized by epichaperome dysregulation, bridging the gap between fundamental research and precision medicine.

Abstract
For decades, chemical cross-linking of proteins has been an established method to study protein interaction partners. The chemical cross-linking approach has recently been revived by mass spectrometric analysis of the cross-linking reaction products. Chemical cross-linking and mass spectrometric analysis (CXMS) enables the identification of residues that are close in three-dimensional (3D) space but not necessarily close in primary sequence. Therefore, this approach provides medium resolution information to guide de novo structure prediction, protein interface mapping and protein complex model building. The robustness and compatibility of the CXMS approach with multiple biochemical methods have made it especially appealing for challenging systems with multiple biochemical compositions and conformation states. This review provides an overview of the CXMS approach, describing general procedures in sample processing, data acquisition and analysis. Selection of proper chemical cross-linking reagents, strategies for cross-linked peptide identification, and successful application of CXMS in structural characterization of proteins and protein complexes are discussed.
