A new h.p.l.c. isolation procedure for chicken and goose erythrocyte histones.

ABSTRACT: Total chicken erythrocyte histones were separated by reversed-phase h.p.l.c. using a multi-step acetonitrile gradient in a very short time (35 min). The proteins were eluted in the following order: H1, H5, H2B, H2A.2, H4, H2A.1 and H3.2. Applying a special gradient system adapted for the separation of very-lysine-rich histones, chicken erythrocyte H5 was resolved into two subfractions. Their electrophoretic mobilities were identical in both SDS and acetic acid/urea/Triton polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, but different in free-flow electrophoresis. Amino-acid-sequence analyses revealed that the two components only differ with respect to position 15, one having glutamine in that position and the other arginine. A separation of histones prepared from goose erythrocytes disclosed no H5 subfractionation. Furthermore, histones obtained from anaemic-chicken blood were analysed by the above-mentioned h.p.l.c. conditions. An alteration in the relation of H1 to H5 was detected, but no further differences in the number and quantity of the histones and histone variants were observed as compared with the corresponding proteins processed from normal-chicken blood.

The stepwise removal of histones from chicken erythrocyte nucleoprotein.

Project description:1. A fractionation of chicken erythrocyte histones was achieved simultaneously with their extraction from saline-washed nuclei by stepwise titrations to progressively lower pH values. 2. Different acids and dilute buffer solutions of comparable pH behaved similarly in stepwise extractions of histones. 3. The histone preparations so obtained were characterized by their amino acid composition and behaviour on zone electrophoresis in starch gels. 4. The fractionation by titration was quite sharp at appropriate pH ranges, and the histone fraction that is apparently unique to avian erythrocytes was obtained without contamination by other histone fractions. 5. Histones prepared by stepwise titration were fractionated further by cation-exchange and exclusion chromatography. The chromatographic behaviour and amino acid composition of the components permitted comparison with histones prepared by other methods. 6. Histone fraction IIb was resolved into its subfractions IIb(1) and IIb(2) by exclusion chromatography on Bio-Gel P-60. 7. Histone fractions III and IV, previously reported to be absent from chicken erythrocyte nuclei, were found in extracts made at pH1.

The chicken erythrocyte epigenome.

Project description:Transcriptional regulation is impacted by multiple layers of genome organization. A general feature of transcriptionally active chromatin is sensitivity to DNase I and association with acetylated histones. However, very few of these active DNase I-sensitive domains, such as the chicken erythrocyte ?-globin domain, have been identified and characterized. In chicken polychromatic erythrocytes, dynamically acetylated histones associated with DNase I-sensitive, transcriptionally active chromatin prevent histone H1/H5-induced insolubility at physiological ionic strength.Here, we identified and mapped out all the transcriptionally active chromosomal domains in the chicken polychromatic erythrocyte genome by combining a powerful chromatin fractionation method with next-generation DNA and RNA sequencing. Two classes of transcribed chromatin organizations were identified on the basis of the extent of solubility at physiological ionic strength. Highly transcribed genes were present in multigenic salt-soluble chromatin domains ranging in length from 30 to over 150 kb. We identified over 100 highly expressed genes that were organized in broad dynamically highly acetylated, salt-soluble chromatin domains. Highly expressed genes were associated with H3K4me3 and H3K27ac and produced discernible antisense transcripts. The moderately- and low-expressing genes had highly acetylated, salt-soluble chromatin regions confined to the 5' end of the gene.Our data provide a genome-wide profile of chromatin signatures in relation to expression levels in chicken polychromatic erythrocytes.

A modified procedure for fractionating histones.

Project description:A method is described, which is capable of fractionating histones obtained from any animal source into five major groups. Although the method is based on procedures initially developed by E. W. Johns (1964), involving differential solubility in solutions of acids and of ethanol, it gives a cleaner separation and possesses the considerable advantage that the starting material is whole histone rather than a nucleoprotein preparation.

A Generic Procedure for the Isolation of pH- and Magnesium-Responsive Chicken scFvs for Downstream Purification of Human Antibodies.

Project description:Affinity chromatography provides an excellent platform for protein purification, which is a key step in the large scale downstream processing of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (Mabs). Protein A chromatography constitutes the gold standard for Mab purification. However, the required acidic conditions (2.8-3.5) for elution from the affinity matrix limit their applicability, particularly for next generation antibodies and antibody fusion proteins, since denaturation and irreversible aggregation can occur due to the acidic buffer conditions. Here we describe a generic procedure for the generation of antigen-specific chromatography ligands with tailor-made elution conditions. To this end, we generated a scFv-library based on mRNA from a chicken immunized with human Fc. The antibody repertoire was displayed on yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae screened via FACS toward pH- and magnesium-responsive scFvs which specifically recognize human IgG antibodies. Isolated scFvs were reformatted, produced in Escherichia coli and immobilized on NHS-agarose columns. Several scFvs were identified that mediated antibody binding at neutral pH and antibody recovery at pH values of 4.5 and higher or even at neutral pH upon MgCl2 exposure. The iterative screening methodology established here is generally amenable to the straightforward isolation of stimulus-responsive antibodies that may become valuable tools for a variety of applications.

Sequence conservation of linker histones between chicken and mammalian species.

Project description:The percent identity matrices of two sequence multiple alignments between linker histones from chicken and mammalian species are described. Linker histone protein sequences for chicken, mouse, rat and humans, available on public databases were used. This information is related to the research article entitled "Identification of novel post-translational modifications in linker histones from chicken erythrocytes"published in the Journal of Proteomics [1].
