Goal of this project was the identification of chromatin interacting proteins whose binding is differentially regulated by di-methylation of lysine 20 on histone H4 (H4K20me2). To achieve this unodified and H4K20me2-modified histone H4 were generated by native chemical ligation and assembled into re...

Here we describe a method for purifying nuclei from specific tissues of animal models that allows simultaneous analysis of both expression and chromatin profiles. The method is based on in vivo labeling of the nuclear envelope and subsequent affinity purification. We describe the use of the method t...

Direct measurement of nucleosome turnover dynamics by using co-translational incorporation of the methionine (Met) surrogate azidohomoalaine (Aha) into proteins and subsequent ligation of biotin to Aha-containing proteins through the [3+2] cycloaddition reaction between the azide group of Aha and an...

Nuclear proteins bind chromatin to execute and regulate genome-templated processes. While structural and biochemical studies of individual nucleosome interactions have suggested that an acidic patch on the nucleosome disk surface may be a common site for recruitment to chromatin, the pervasiveness o...

In mammalian cells transcription factors (TFs) preferentially bind sites contained in regions of high nucleosomal occupancy, as determined by nucleotide-dependent computational analysis. This observation suggests that nucleosomes may act as gatekeepers of TF binding sites. We hypothesized that in ma...

All eukaryotic cells divide a finite number of times, termed replicative aging, but the reason for this is not clear. Consistent with the decreased total histone protein levels in aged Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is a cause of aging (1), we find that nucleosome occupancy decreases 50% across the...

We were interested to explain why p53 binds some high affinity sites in contrast to other high affinity sites that are not bound by p53. p53 binding was measured using p53 ChIP-CHIP and in parallel nucleosome occupancy was measured on these same sites Comparison between p53 binding and nucleosome oc...

Chemical modification of histone proteins by methylation plays a central role in chromatin regulation by recruiting epigenetic ‘readers’ via specialized binding domains. Depending on the degree of methylation, the exact modified amino acid, and the associated reader proteins histone methylations are...

The nucleosome acidic patch is a major interaction hub for chromatin, providing a platform for enzymes to dock and orient for nucleosome-targeted activities. In order to define the molecular basis of acidic patch recognition proteome-wide, we performed an amino acid resolution acidic patch interacto...

Here we investigated the stability of nucleosomal modifications during pull-down affinity purification with HeLa nuclear extracts. Unmodified di-nucleosomes and di-nucleosomes decorated with H3K4me3K9acK14acK18acK23acK27ac, H4K5acK8acK12acK16acK20me2 and incorporating histone variant H2A.Z were incu...
