Chromatin profiling reveals novel proteins associated with histone-marked genomic regions

ABSTRACT: Our understanding of the functions of DNA elements is limited by the paucity of information about the spectrum of proteins that occupy these genomic regions. Here we describe an approach to identify proteins associated with genomic regions whose chromatin is marked by specific modified histones, which we term chromatin profiling. We used chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by mass spectrometry (ChIP-MS) to identify proteins associated with genomic regions marked by histone H3K27Ac, H3K4me3, H3K79me2 and H3K36me3 in mouse embryonic stem (mES) cells. We identified 385 known and 224 novel candidate proteins associated with these histone-marked genomic segments and confirmed that several of the novel candidates are indeed associated with histone-marked segments of the genome. Future study of the novel candidates, many of which have been implicated in various diseases, should lead to an improved understanding of gene control and its dysregulation in disease.

Project description:This model is described in the article: Kinetics of histone gene expression during early development of Xenopus laevis. Koster JG, Destrée OH and Westerhoff HV. J Theor Biol. 1988 Nov 21;135(2):139-67. PMID: 3267765 Abstract: Using literature data for transcriptional and translational rate constants, gene copy numbers, DNA concentrations, and stability constants, we have calculated the expected concentrations of histones and histone mRNA during embryogenesis of Xenopus laevis. The results led us to conclude that: (i) for X. laevis the gene copy number of the histone genes is too low to ensure the synthesis of sufficient histones during very early development, inheritance from the oocyte of either histone protein or histone mRNA (but not necessarily both) is necessary; (ii) from the known storage of histones in the oocyte and the rates of histone synthesis determined by Adamson and Woodland (1977), there would be sufficient histones to structure the newly synthesized DNA up to gastrulation but not thereafter (these empirical rates of histone synthesis may be underestimates); (iii) on the other hand, the amount of H3 mRNA recently observed during early embryogenesis (Koster, 1987, Koster et al., 1988) could direct a higher and sufficient synthesis of H3 protein, also after gastrulation. We present a quantitative model that accounts both for the observed H3 mRNA concentration as a function of time during embryogenesis and for the synthesis of sufficient histones to structure the DNA throughout early embryogenesis. The model suggests that X. laevis exhibits a major (i.e. some 14-fold) reduction in transcription of histone genes approximately 11 hours after fertilization. This reduction could be due to a decrease in the number of transcribed histone genes, a decreased rate constant of transcription with continued transcription of all the histone genes, and/or a reduction in the time during the cell cycle in which histone mRNA synthesis takes place. Alternatively, the histone mRNA stability might decrease approximately 16-fold 11 hours after fertilization. This model originates from BioModels Database: A Database of Annotated Published Models.
