Project description:We report the identification of 67 previously undescribed histone modifications, increasing the current number of known histone marks by about 70%. We further investigated one of the marks, lysine crotonylation (Kcr), confirming that it represents an evolutionarily-conserved histone posttranslational modification. The unique structure and genomic localization of histone Kcr suggest that it is mechanistically and functionally different from histone lysine acetylation (Kac). Specifically, in both human somatic and mouse male germ cell genomes, histone Kcr marks either active promoters or potential enhancers. In male germinal cells immediately following meiosis, Kcr is enriched on sex chromosomes and specifically marks testis-specific genes, including a significant proportion of X-linked genes that escape sex chromosome inactivation in haploid cells. These results therefore dramatically extend the repertoire of histone PTM sites and designate Kcr as a specific mark of active sex chromosome-linked genes in postmeiotic male germ cells. 2 histone marks (pan-lysine acetylation and pan-lysine crotonylation) were studied in 1 human cell type and 2 mouse cell types using ChIP-Seq. Input was sequenced for each cell type as a control. Pan-anti_Kac and pan-anti_Kcr antibodies were custom developed with PTM BioLab, Co., Ltd (Chicago, IL).

Project description:Bottom-up proteomics database search algorithms used for peptide identification cannot comprehensively identify posttranslational modifications (PTMs) in a single-pass because of high false discovery rates (FDRs). A new approach to database searching enables Global PTM (G-PTM) identification by exclusively looking for curated PTMs, thereby avoiding the FDR penalty experienced during conventional variable modification searches. We identified nearly 2500 unique, high-confidence modified peptides comprising 31 different PTM types in single-pass database searches.

Male C57BL/6J (B6) and CAST/EiJ (CAST) mice were purchased from The Jackson Laboratories (Bar Harbor, Maine) and housed in an environmentally controlled vivarium at the University of Wisconsin Biochemistry Department. Mice were provided standard rodent chow (Purina no. 5008) and water ad libitum, and maintained on a 12-hour light/dark cycle (6 AM – 6 PM). At 10 weeks of age, mice were sacrificed by CO2 asphyxiation. All animal procedures were preapproved by the University of Wisconsin Animal Care and Use Committee.

Project description:Histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) contribute to chromatin function through their chemical properties which influence chromatin structure, and their ability to recruit chromatin interacting proteins. Nanoflow liquid chromatography coupled with high resolution tandem mass spectrometry (nanoLC-MS/MS) has emerged as the most suitable technology for global histone modification analysis due to the high sensitivity and the high mass accuracy that provide confident identification. However, the histone nanoLC-MS/MS data analysis is even more challenging due to the large number and variety of isobaric histone peptides, and the high dynamic range of histone peptide abundances. Here, we introduce EpiProfile, a software tool that discriminates isobaric histone peptides using the distinguishing fragment ions in their tandem mass spectra and extracts the chromatographic area under the curve using previous knowledge about peptide retention time. The accuracy of EpiProfile was evaluated by analysis of mixtures containing different ratios of synthetic histone peptides. In addition to label-free quantification of histone peptides, EpiProfile is flexible, and can quantify different types of isotopically labeled histone peptides. EpiProfile is much more convenient when compared to manual quantification, filling the need of an automatic and freely available tool to quantify labeled and non-labeled modified histone peptides. In summary, EpiProfile is a valuable nanoLC-MS/MS based quantification tool for histone modifications, which can also be adapted to analyze non-histone protein samples.

Project description:To understand whether parental histone PTM landscape plays roles in cell differentiation, we perturbed parental histone PTM allocation by mutating histone chaperone MCM2 on its histone binding domain (MCM2-2A mutation), disrupted only the histone transferring of MCM2 protein in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Combining single-cell transcriptomics and epigenomics with lineage barcoding, we found that MCM2-2A mutant ESCs cannot be fully differentiated to neuronal precursor cells (NPCs), causing by the redistribution of H3K27me3, and subsequently NPC related gene expression. Here, we show that the parental histone allocation plays an important role in the establishment of chromatin landscapes, altering ESC differentiational potential, shaping expression programs and cell heterogeneity.

Project description:Histone post-translational modifications (PTM) encode much of genome's regulatory information. However, regular chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) protocols trace histone PTM to genomic regions spanning several nucleosomes, making it difficult to study how different histone PTM combine within individual nucleosomes to regulate the genome. Here, we devised computational and statistical methods to map H3K4me3, H3K27Ac, H3K9me3, and H3K27me3 to individual nucleosomes using MNase digestion of chromatin coupled with ChIP-seq. A significant number of nucleosomes were marked by two or more of histone marks. Nucleosomes marked simultaneously by H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 were prevalent among bivalent domains compared to the genomic background whereas nucleosomes having the repressive marks H3K27me3 and H3K9me3 were enriched at the transcription staring site of highly active genes only if they were also co-localized with the activating mark H3K27Ac. Inclusion of alternatively spliced exons on the final mRNA is correlated with nucleosomes marked by H3K4me3, H3K27Ac, and H3K27me3, but is largely unaffected by nucleosomes marked by H3K9me3. Together, these findings reveal that combinatorial patterns of histone PTM within individual nucleosomes are fundamental to encode regulatory information.

Project description:Chromatin structure and function is maintained by dynamic protein-protein and protein-nucleic acid interactions. Histones are a family of proteins that are abundant chromatin constituents and that carry numerous post-translational modifications (PTMs). Histone PTMs mediate a variety of biological activities, including recruitment of enzymatic readers, writers and erasers that modulate protein activities, DNA replication, transcription and repair. Individual histone molecules contain multiple co-existing PTMs some of which exhibit crosstalk, i.e. coordinated or mutually exclusive activities. We here present an integrated experimental and computational approach for systems level molecular characterization of PTMs and PTM crosstalk. Using wildtype and engineered mouse embryonic stem cells with perturbations in the Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1, suz12-/-), PRC2 (Ring1A/b-/-) and DNA methyltransferases (Dnmt1/3a/3b-/-) we performed comprehensive PTM analysis of histone H3 tails. We identified unique histone H3 PTM features of each of the four cell lines and we detected common combinatorial PTM features across cell lines. Using quantitative middle-down proteomics combined with probabilistic and statistical data analysis we extracted histone H3 PTM profiles for all four mESC systems. PTM crosstalk emerged as mutually exclusive histone PTMs or coordinately regulated PTMs independent of histone peptide abundance in the four model systems. We detected positive crosstalk between adjacent mono-methylated marks but strong negative crosstalk among most of the seven characterized di- and tri-methylations on lysines. We report novel features of PTM interplay involving hitherto poorly characterized arginine methylation and lysine methylation sites in histone H3, including H3R2me, H3R8me and H3K37me, which exhibited specific PTM codes suggesting a particular role in chromatin. All histone H3 PTM data is available in our publicly available CrossTalkDB repository at http://crosstalkdb.bmb.sdu.dk

Project description:Histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a critical role in chromatin regulation. It has been proposed that these PTMs form localized “codes” that are read by specialized domains (reader domains) in chromatin associated proteins (CAPs) to regulate downstream function. Substantial effort has been made to define [CAP - histone PTM] specificity, and in doing so to decipher the histone code. However, this has largely been done using a reductive approach of isolated reader domains and histone peptides, with the assumption that PTM readout is unaffected by any higher order considerations. Here we show that histone PTM specificity is in fact dependent on nucleosomal context, necessitating we re-define the ‘histone code’ concept and further interrogate it at the nucleosomal level.

Project description:Epigenetic states defined by chromatin can be maintained through mitotic cell division. However, it remains unknown how histone-based information is transmitted. Here we combine nascent chromatin capture (NCC) and triple-SILAC labelling to track histone modifications and histone variants during DNA replication and across the cell cycle. We show that post-translational modifications (PTMs) are transmitted with parental histones to newly replicated DNA. Di- and tri-methylation marks are diluted two-fold upon DNA replication, as a consequence of new histone deposition. Importantly, within one cell cycle all PTMs are restored. In general, new histones are modified to mirror the parental histones. However, H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 are propagated by continuous modification of parental and new histones, because the establishment of these marks extends over several cell generations. Together, our results reveal how histone marks propagate and demonstrate that chromatin states oscillate within the cell cycle.
