Project description:Recombinant antibodies to histone post-translational modifications (PTMs), with their essentially infinite renewability, could fundamentally eliminate a major source of low reproducibility in epigenetics research. Here, we report new recombinant antibodies to trimethylated Lys4 and Lys9, respectively, on histone H3. Quantitative characterization demonstrated their exquisite specificity and high affinity, and they performed well in common epigenetics applications, including ChIP. These results demonstrate the feasibility of generating recombinant antibodies to a range of histone marks, which will accelerate epigenetics research. We characterized recombinant antibodies with native ChIP using HEK293 cells followed by deep sequencing.

Project description:In recent years, high throughput discovery of human recombinant monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) has been applied, to greatly advance our understanding of the specificity, and functional activity of antibodies, against HIV. Thousands of antibodies have been generated and screened in functional neutralization assays, and antibodies, associated with cross-strain neutralization and passive protection in primates, have been identified. To facilitate this type of discovery, a high throughput-screening tool is needed, to accurately classify mAbs, and their antigen targets. In this study, we analyzed and evaluated a prototype microarray chip, comprised of HIV-1 recombinant proteins gp140, gp120, gp41, and several membrane proximal external region peptides. The protein microarray analysis of 11 HIV-1 envelope-specific mAbs revealed diverse binding affinities and specificities across clades. Half maximal effective concentrations, generated by our chip analysis, correlated significantly (P<0.0001) with concentrations from ELISA binding measurements. Polyclonal immune responses in plasma samples, from HIV-1 infected subjects, exhibited different binding patterns and reactivity against printed proteins. Examining the totality of the specificity of the humoral response in this way reveals the exquisite diversity, and specificity of the humoral response to HIV.

Project description:Histone lysine lactylation (Klac) is a new posttranslational modification (PTM) that is installed by acetyltransferase to modulate specific immune responses1 and oncogenesis2,3. Akkermansia muciniphila (A. muciniphila) is a beneficial bacterium that blunts ulcerative colitis (UC) in a mouse model by secreting extracellular vesicles (SEVs)4. Although many histone sites are known to contain lysine lactylation, whether this modification is regulated to modulate specific biological functions by exogenous acetyltransferase or intestinal microbiota is not well understood. Here, we discovered that SEV from A. muciniphila, rather than A. muciniphila per se, has anti-Th17 (T helper 17) differentiation activity. We further screened the composition of SEV and found that Amuc_2172 is the key active component. As a GCN5-related acetyltransferase of A. muciniphila, Amuc_2172 is accessible to naïve T cells and functions as a lactylation transferase on Lys4 of histone H3. Accelerated histone H3 lactylation (H3Klac) on Lys4 competitively blocks trimethylation (H3Kme3) on Il17a loci in the process of Th17-cell differentiation. Additionally, intraperitoneal application of recombinant Amuc_2172 also inhibited Th17 and dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced UC phenotypes in vivo; moreover, bioengineered Amuc_2172 showed improved colitis site delivery and higher Th17 inhibition potential compared to Amuc_2172 alone. Our study reveals not only a potential therapeutic strategy for treating colitis but also a model via which lysine lactylation is regulated by the intestinal microbiota, which may be broadly applicable to understand the crosstalk of bacteria and immunity.

Project description:Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an extreme example of cell plasticity, important for normal development, injury repair, and malignant progression. Widespread epigenetic reprogramming occurs during stem cell differentiation and malignant transformation, but EMT-related epigenetic reprogramming is poorly understood. Here we investigated epigenetic modifications during TGF-β-mediated EMT. While DNA methylation was unchanged during EMT, we found global reduction of the heterochromatin mark H3-lys9 dimethylation (H3K9Me2), increase of the euchromatin mark H3-lys4 trimethylation (H3K4Me3), and increase of the transcriptional mark H3-lys36 trimethylation (H3K36Me3). These changes were largely dependent on lysine-specific deaminase-1 (LSD1), and LSD1 loss-of-function experiments showed marked effects on EMT-driven cell migration and chemoresistance. Genome-scale mapping revealed that chromatin changes were largely specific to large organized heterochromatin K9-modifications (LOCKs), suggesting that EMT is characterized by reprogramming of specific chromatin domains across the genome.

Project description:Low level of H3 Lys4 tri-methylation is a signature feature of silenced chromatin regions. We used microarray to analyze the contribution of S. cerevisiae H3 Lys4 demethylase Jhd2p in silenced chromatin formation process. Total RNA from two JHD2 gene altered strains : jhd2 deletion and JHD2 over-expression, together with a set1 deletion strain (Set1p: H3 Lys4 methlase) were analyzed with Affymetrix Yeast 2.0 array. We sought to dissect Jhd2p functions into H3 Lys4 methylation related and unrelated parts by comparing microarry results of JHD2 and SET1 gene altered strains.

Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) was performed with antibodies against H3K9Me2 (Abcam, ab1220), H3K36Me3 (ab9050), and H3K4Me3 (ab8580) on native (unfixed) chromatin isolated from fully differentiated mouse AML12 cells (confluent, serum starved for 48hrs) either treated with TGF-β for 36hrs to induce EMT or not treated with TGF-β (0hrs, differentiated AML12 cells). DNA purified from these samples was then either whole-genome amplified (H3K36Me3 and H3K4Me3) and hybridized or directly (H3K9Me2) hybridized to NimbleGen 2.1M economy whole-genome tiling arrays #2 (listed below as array 1) and #3 (listed below as array 2), which cover mouse chromosomes 4-14. For each sample, the immunoprecipitated DNA (IP) and the input (control) DNA were hybridized to the arrays, and the IP is normalized to the input. There are 16 total samples listed below. There are 8 sample for H3K9Me2 (TGF-β and no TGF-β for arrays 1 and 2, done in replicate for a total of 8). There are 4 samples for H3K36Me3 (TGF-β and no TGF-β done on array 1 and array 2). There are 4 total samples for H3K4Me3 (TGF-β and no TGF-β done on array 1 and array 2).
