Change of histone H3 lysine 14 acetylation stoichiometry in human monocyte derived macrophages as determined by MS-based absolute targeted quantitative proteomic approach: HIV infection and methamphetamine exposure.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Histones posttranslational modification represent an epigenetic mechanism that regulate gene expression and other cellular processes. Quantitative mass spectrometry used for the absolute quantification of such modifications provides further insight into cellular responses to extracellular insults such as infections or toxins. Methamphetamine (Meth), a drug of abuse, is affecting the overall function of the immune system. In this report, we developed, validated and applied a targeted, MS-based quantification assay to measure changes in histone H3 lysine 14 acetylation (H3K14Ac) during exposure of human primary macrophages to HIV-1 infection and/or Meth.

Methods

The quantification assay was developed and validated to determine H3K14Ac stoichiometry in histones that
