Zusammenfassung:Histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) have a fundamental function in chromatin biology, as they model chromatin structure and recruit enzymes involved in gene regulation, DNA repair, and chromosome condensation. High throughput characterization of histone PTMs is mostly performed by using nano-liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. However, limitations in speed and stochastic sampling of data dependent acquisition methods in MS lead to incomplete discrimination of isobaric peptides and loss of low abundant species. In this work, we analyzed histone PTMs with a data-independent acquisition method, namely SWATH™ analysis. This approach allows for MS/MS-based quantification of all analytes without upfront assay development and no issues of biased and incomplete sampling. We purified histone proteins from human embryonic stem cells and mouse trophoblast stem cells before and after differentiation, and prepared them for MS analysis using the propionic anhydride protocol. Results on histone H3 peptides verified that sequential window acquisition of all theoretical mass spectra could accurately quantify peptides (
