Chromatin tandem affinity purification sequencing.

ABSTRACT: Chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with ultra-high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) is a widely used method for mapping the interactions of proteins with DNA. However, the requirements for ChIP-grade antibodies impede wider application of this method, and variations in results can be high owing to differences in affinity and cross-reactivity of antibodies. Therefore, we developed chromatin tandem affinity purification (ChTAP) as an effective alternative to ChIP. Through the use of affinity tags and reagents that are identical for all proteins investigated, ChTAP enables one to directly compare the binding between different transcription factors and to directly assess the background in control experiments. Thus, ChTAP-seq can be used to rapidly map the genome-wide binding of multiple DNA-binding proteins in a wide range of cell types. ChTAP can be completed in 3-4 d, starting from cross-linking of chromatin to purification of ChIP DNA.

Profiling of Parkin-binding partners using tandem affinity purification.

Project description:Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder affecting approximately 1-2% of the general population over age 60. It is characterized by a rather selective loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra and the presence of ?-synuclein-enriched Lewy body inclusions. Mutations in the Parkin gene (PARK2) are the major cause of autosomal recessive early-onset parkinsonism. The Parkin protein is an E3 ubiquitin ligase with various cellular functions, including the induction of mitophagy upon mitochondrial depolarizaton, but the full repertoire of Parkin-binding proteins remains poorly defined. Here we employed tandem affinity purification interaction screens with subsequent mass spectrometry to profile binding partners of Parkin. Using this approach for two different cell types (HEK293T and SH-SY5Y neuronal cells), we identified a total of 203 candidate Parkin-binding proteins. For the candidate proteins and the proteins known to cause heritable forms of parkinsonism, protein-protein interaction data were derived from public databases, and the associated biological processes and pathways were analyzed and compared. Functional similarity between the candidates and the proteins involved in monogenic parkinsonism was investigated, and additional confirmatory evidence was obtained using published genetic interaction data from Drosophila melanogaster. Based on the results of the different analyses, a prioritization score was assigned to each candidate Parkin-binding protein. Two of the top ranking candidates were tested by co-immunoprecipitation, and interaction to Parkin was confirmed for one of them. New candidates for involvement in cell death processes, protein folding, the fission/fusion machinery, and the mitophagy pathway were identified, which provide a resource for further elucidating Parkin function.

Tandem affinity purification of miRNA target mRNAs (TAP-Tar).

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) bind to Argonaute proteins, and together they form the RISC complex and regulate target mRNA translation and/or stability. Identification of mRNA targets is key to deciphering the physiological functions and mode of action of miRNAs. In mammals, miRNAs are generally poorly homologous to their target sequence, and target identification cannot be based solely on bioinformatics. Here, we describe a biochemical approach, based on tandem affinity purification, in which mRNA/miRNA complexes are sequentially pulled down, first via the Argonaute moiety and then via the miRNA. Our 'TAP-Tar' procedure allows the specific pull down of mRNA targets of miRNA. It is useful for validation of targets predicted in silico, and, potentially, for discovery of previously uncharacterized targets.

Genome-Wide Identification of the FRS12 Binding Sites by Tandem Chromatin Affinity Purification â Seq Analysis in Arabidopsis thaliana

Project description:To identify the genomic binding sites of FRS12, Tandem Chromatin Affinity Purification â Seq (TChAP-Seq) was performed on 7-d-old Pro35S:FRS12-HBH and Pro35S:NLS-GFP-HBH expressing Arabidopsis thaliana PSB-D cells. Cultures were transferred to long days (16:8) conditions two weeks before harvesting at night time (NT) at zeitgeber time (ZT) 20 (time of lights on usually defines zeitgeber time zero). Chromatin was isolated from formaldehyde-treated cell cultures following two affinity purification steps; first by IMAC using a Ni-NTA Superflow resin (Qiagen), then by a Biotin binding step using a Streptavidin Sepharose resin (GE Healthcare). Finally, protein-DNA bound fragments were decrosslinked, deproteinized and purified using QIAquick PCR Purification Kit (Qiagen). Pro35S:FRS12-HBH samples were carried in two replicates whereas background Pro35S:NLS-GFP-HBH sample was prepared in a single replicate. The TChAP DNA samples were processed by first preparing a TruSeq ChIPseq library (Illumina) and then sequenced using Illumina HiSeq 2000 at 50bp single read at an average depth of 15 million reads.

Tandem affinity purification of functional TAP-tagged proteins from human cells.

Project description:Tandem affinity purification (TAP) is a generic two-step affinity purification protocol for isolation of TAP-tagged proteins together with associated proteins. We used bacterial artificial chromosome to heterologously express TAP-tagged murine Sgo1 protein in human HeLa cells. This allowed us to test the functionality of the Sgo1-TAP protein by RNA interference-mediated depletion of the endogenous human Sgo1. Here, we present an optimized protocol for purification of TAP-tagged Sgo1 protein as well as KIAA1387 from HeLa cells with detailed instructions. The purification protocol can be completed in 1 day and it should be applicable to other proteins.

SnAvi--a new tandem tag for high-affinity protein-complex purification.

Project description:Systematic tandem-affinity-purification (TAP) of protein complexes was tremendously successful in yeast and has changed the general concept of how we understand protein function in eukaryotic cells. The transfer of this method to other model organisms has been difficult and may require specific adaptations. We were especially interested to establish a cell-type-specific TAP system for Caenorhabditis elegans, a model animal well suited to high-throughput analysis, proteomics and systems biology. By combining the high-affinity interaction between in vivo biotinylated target-proteins and streptavidin with the usage of a newly identified epitope of the publicly shared SB1 monoclonal antibody we created a novel in vivo fluorescent tag, the SnAvi-Tag. We show the versatile application of the SnAvi-Tag in Escherichia coli, vertebrate cells and in C. elegans for tandem affinity purification of protein complexes, western blotting and also for the in vivo sub-cellular localization of labelled proteins.

GABAB receptor constituents revealed by tandem affinity purification from transgenic mice.

Project description:GABA(B) receptors function as heterodimeric G-protein-coupled receptors for the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Receptor subtypes, based on isoforms of the ligand-binding subunit GABA(B1), are thought to involve a differential set of associated proteins. Here, we describe two mouse lines that allow a straightforward biochemical isolation of GABA(B) receptors. The transgenic mice express GABA(B1) isoforms that contain sequences for a two-step affinity purification, in addition to their endogenous subunit repertoire. Comparative analyses of purified samples from the transgenic mice and wild-type control animals revealed two novel components of the GABA(B1) complex. One of the identified proteins, potassium channel tetramerization domain-containing protein 12, associates with heterodimeric GABA(B) receptors via the GABA(B2) subunit. In transfected hippocampal neurons, potassium channel tetramerization domain-containing protein 12 augmented axonal surface targeting of GABA(B2). The mice equipped with tags on GABA(B1) facilitate validation and identification of native binding partners of GABA(B) receptors, providing insight into the molecular mechanisms of synaptic modulation.

An improved strategy for tandem affinity purification-tagging of Schizosaccharomyces pombe genes.

Project description:Tandem affinity purification (TAP) is a method that allows rapid purification of native protein complexes. We developed an improved technique to fuse the fission yeast genes with a TAP tag. Our technique is based on tagging constructs that contain regions homologous to the target gene cloned into vectors carrying a TAP tag. We used this technique to design strategies for TAP-tagging of predicted Schizosaccharomyces pombe genes (http://mendel.imp.ac.at/Pombe_tagging/). To validate the approach, we purified the proteins, which associated with two evolutionarily conserved proteins Swi5 and Sfr1 as well as three protein kinases Ksg1, Orb6 and Sid1.

Tandem affinity purification and mass spectrometric analysis of ubiquitylated proteins in Arabidopsis.

Project description:Protein ubiquitylation is a central regulatory mechanism that controls numerous processes in plants, including hormone signaling, developmental progression, responses to biotic and abiotic challenges, protein trafficking and chromatin structure. Despite data implicating thousands of plant proteins as targets, so far only a few have been conclusively shown to be ubiquitylated in planta. Here we describe a method to isolate ubiquitin-protein conjugates from Arabidopsis that exploits a stable transgenic line expressing a synthetic poly-UBQ gene encoding ubiquitin (Ub) monomers N-terminally tagged with hexahistidine. Following sequential enrichment by Ub-affinity and nickel chelate-affinity chromatography, the ubiquitylated proteins were trypsinized, separated by two-dimensional liquid chromatography, and analyzed by mass spectrometry. Our list of 54 non-redundant targets, expressed by as many as 90 possible isoforms, included those predicted by genetic studies to be ubiquitylated in plants (EIN3 and JAZ6) or shown to be ubiquitylated in other eukaryotes (ribosomal subunits, elongation factor 1alpha, histone H1, HSP70 and CDC48), as well as candidates whose control by the Ub/26S proteasome system is not yet appreciated. Ub attachment site(s) were resolved for a subset of these proteins, but surprisingly little sequence consensus was detected, implying that specific residues surrounding the modified lysine are not important determinants for ubiquitylation. We also identified six of the seven available lysine residues on Ub itself as Ub attachment sites, together with evidence for a branched mixed-linkage chain, suggesting that the topologies of Ub chains can be highly complex in plants. Taken together, our method provides a widely applicable strategy to define ubiquitylation in any tissue of intact plants exposed to a wide range of conditions.

Identification of testis 14-3-3 binding proteins by tandem affinity purification.

Project description:The 14-3-3 family of proteins interacts with various cellular phosphoproteins and regulates multiple cell signaling cascades. Identification of 14-3-3 interactors is important to define 14-3-3 functions in various biological pathways. The binding partners of protein 14-3-3 in testis are not known. The main goal of this study was to identify the 14-3-3 interactome in testis to determine the 14-3-3 regulated cellular processes in testis. We used transgenic mice expressing tandem affinity tagged 14-3-3? (TAP-14-3-3?) driven by the ubiquitin promoter to isolate 14-3-3 binding proteins. The 14-3-3 complexes in testis were isolated using a two-step tandem affinity purification (TAP) followed by identification with liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). A total of 135 proteins were found to be associated with 14-3-3 in vivo in testis. Comparison of the testis 14-3-3 proteome with known 14-3-3 binding proteins showed that 71 of the proteins identified in this study are novel 14-3-3 interactors. Eight of these novel 14-3-3 interacting proteins are predominantly expressed in testis. The 14-3-3 interactors predominant in testis are: protein phosphatase1?2 (PP1?2), spermatogenesis associated 18 (SPATA18), phosphoglycerate kinase-2 (PGK2), testis specific gene A-2 (TSGA-2), dead box polypeptide 4 (DDX4), piwi homolog 1, protein kinase NYD-SP25 and EAN57. The fact that some of these proteins are indispensable for spermatogenesis suggests that their binding to 14-3-3 may be important for their function in germ cell division and maturation. These findings are discussed in context of the putative functions of 14-3-3 in spermatogenesis.

Tandem Affinity Purification of SBP-CBP-tagged Type Three Secretion System Effectors.

Project description:Identification of protein-protein interactions of bacterial effectors and cellular targets during infection is at the core to understand how bacteria manipulate the infected host to overcome the immune response. Potential interacting proteins might be identified by genetic methods, i.e., two hybrid screens and could be verified by co-immunoprecipitation. The tandem affinity purification (TAP) method allows an unbiased screen of potential interaction partners of bacterial effectors in a physiological approach: target cells can be infected with a bacterial strain harboring the TAP-tagged bacterial effector protein which is translocated in the host similar as under physiological infection conditions. No transfection and overexpression of the bacterial protein in the eukaryotic host are needed. Therefore, also host target cells not easy to transfect can be analyzed by this method. Moreover, the two consecutive affinity tags Calmodulin-Binding-Peptide (CBP) and Streptavidin-Binding-Peptide (SBP) fused to the translocated bacterial protein allow an outstanding clear purification of protein complexes formed between the bacterial protein of interest and host cell proteins with less occurrence of contaminants. Mass spectrometry allows an unbiased identification of interacting eukaryotic proteins.
