This document discusses post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins. It provides examples of common PTMs like phosphorylation, acetylation, glycosylation, and discusses how they impact protein targeting, stability, function and activity regulation. The document also discusses how PTMs are studied, noting the Human Proteome Initiative aims to map all human protein modifications. Histone modifications and their impact on chromatin structure and gene expression are discussed in detail. Mitochondrial protein phosphorylation and its role in organelle regulation is also mentioned.

- 21. Histone and Nucleosome Function The nucleosome not only serves to compact the genetic material but also provides information that affects nuclear functions including DNA replication, repair and transcription. This information is conveyed through numerous combinations of histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) and histone variants. How and when these combinations of PTMs are imposed and to what extent they are determined by the choice of a specific histone variant.
- 22. In the nucleosome, DNA is wrapped around a histone octamer, comprising a central core made of a tetramer of histones H3–H4 flanked by two dimers of histones H2A–H2B. Histone H3 variants and their interaction with H4
- 23. Dynamic Change of Chromatin Structure TIBS 26(2001)431 Structural changes in chromatin are facilitated by a variety of nuclear activities that reversibly modify nucleosomes and nucleosome-remodeling complexes - such as histone kinases, methylases, acetylases, histone deacetylases, DNA methylases The nucleus also contains numerous proteins, such as the high mobility group N (HMGN) proteins, which bind to DNA and to nucleosomes and induce structural changes that affect transcription, replication and other DNA-dependent activities
- 24. Chromatin Remodeling The regulated alteration of chromatin structure, can be accomplished by : (1) covalent modification of histones (2) action of ATP-dependent remodeling complexes. A variety of mechanisms can be used to remodel chromatin; some act locally on a single nucleosome and others act more broadly.
- 25. H3 Barcode Hypotheses Histones can be modified by post-translational modifications (PTMs), including acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation and ubiquitination (mainly in N-terminal) The histone code hypothesis : specific PTMs regulate gene expression by two mechanisms: (1) changing the chromatin structure into activated or repressed transcriptional state (2) acting as a docking site for transcriptional regulators

- 38. Protein Glycosylation Common in Eukaryotic Proteins
- 40. N-Linked Glycans N-linked glycans are covalently attached to Asn residues within a consensus sequence (Asn-Xaa- Ser/Thr), enabling prediction of the modification sites by protein sequence analysis All N-linked glycans share a common pentasaccharide core (GlcNAc2Man3) recognized by lectins and N-glycanase enzymes (PNGase F) These reagents have been used to visualize proteins bearing N-linked glycans from cell or tissue lysates and to enrich them for mass spectrometry analysis
- 41. O-Linked Glycans Comparable tools are lacking for the study of proteins bearing O-linked glycans. Mucin-type, the most prevalent O-linked glycosylation is characterized by an N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) residue -linked to the hydroxyl group of Ser or Thr. GalNAc residue is installed by a family of 24 N-acetyl- galactosaminyltransferases, then further elaborated by a series of glycosyltransferases to generate higher- order O-linked structures. Because of the complex biosynthetic origin, O-linked glycans are not installed at a defined consensus motif and their presence cannot be accurately predicted based on the protein's primary sequence
- 42. Mucin-Type Proteins Large, abundant, filamentous glycoproteins that are present at the interface between many epithelia and their extracellular environments Mucin consist of at least 50% O-glycans by weight, in mucin domains or PTS regions (riched in Pro, Thr, Ser) These large regions comprise up to 6000 amino acids in length, with short (8–169 amino acids) tandem repeats

- 45. PNAS 103(2006)4819-4824 Peracetylated N-azidoacetylgalactosamine (Ac4GalNAz), an azido analog of GalNAc, was shown to be metabolized by cultured cells and incorporated into the core position of O-linked glycans . The azide is distinguished from all cellular functionality by its unique chemical reactivity with phosphine probes, a reaction termed the Staudinger ligation. Thus, proteins modified with GalNAz, a marker of O-linked glycans, can be selectively tagged for visualization or enrichment

To map modification sites in molecular detail, novel mass spectrometric peptide sequencing and analysis technologies hold tremendous potential. Finally, stable isotope labeling strategies in combination with mass spectrometry have been applied successfully to study the dynamics of modifications.
