Data for the identification of proteins and post-translational modifications of proteins associated to histones H3 and H4 in S. cerevisiae, using tandem affinity purification coupled with mass spectrometry
Tandem affinity purification method (TAP) allows the efficient purification of native protein complexes which incorporate a target protein fused with the TAP tag. Purified multiprotein complexes can then be subjected to diverse types of proteomic analyses. Here we describe the data acquired after applying the TAP strategy on histones H3 and H4 coupled with mass spectrometry to identify associated proteins and protein post-translational modifications in the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The mass spectrometry dataset described here consists of 14 files generated from four different analyses in a 5600 Triple TOF (Sciex) by informationâdependent acquisition (IDA) LCâMS/MS. The above files contain information about protein identification, protein relative abundance, and PTMs identification. The instrumental raw data from these files has been also uploaded to the ProteomeXchange Consortium via the PRIDE partner repository, with the dataset identifier PRIDE: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/pride/archive/projects/PXD002671 and http://dx.doi.org/10.6019/PXD002671. These data are discussed and interpreted in http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jprot.2016.01.004. Valero et al. (2016) [1].

Unveiling novel interactions of histone chaperone Asf1 linked to TREX-2 factors Sus1 and Thp1
13 pĂĄginas, 7 figuras, 2 yablasAnti-silencing function 1 (Asf1) is a conserved key eukaryotic histone H3/H4 chaperone that participates in a variety of DNA and chromatin-related processes. These include the assembly and disassembly of histones H3 and H4 from chromatin during replication, transcription, and DNA repair. In addition, Asf1 is required for H3K56 acetylation activity dependent on histone acetyltransferase Rtt109. Thus, Asf1 impacts on many aspects of DNA metabolism. To gain insights into the functional links of Asf1 with other cellular machineries, we employed mass spectrometry coupled to tandem affinity purification (TAP) to investigate novel physical interactions of Asf1. Under different TAP-MS analysis conditions, we describe a new repertoire of Asf1 physical interactions and novel Asf1 post-translational modifications as ubiquitination, methylation and acetylation that open up new ways to regulate Asf1 functions. Asf1 co-purifies with several subunits of the TREX-2, SAGA complexes, and with nucleoporins Nup2, Nup60, and Nup57, which are all involved in transcription coupled to mRNA export in eukaryotes. Reciprocally, Thp1 and Sus1 interact with Asf1. Albeit mRNA export and GAL1 transcription are not affected in asf1Î a strong genetic interaction exists between ASF1 and SUS1. Notably, supporting a functional link between Asf1 and TREX-2, both Sus1 and Thp1 affect the levels of Asf1-dependent histone H3K56 acetylation and histone H3 and H4 incorporation onto chromatin. Additionally, we provide evidence for a role of Asf1 in histone H2B ubiquitination. This work proposes a functional link between Asf1 and TREX-2 components in histone metabolism at the vicinity of the nuclear pore complex.This work has been supported by MINECO, Spain (BFU2011-23418) and by the GV (PROMETEO/2013/061 Valencian Regional Government) grants to S.R.-N.
