ABSTRACT
Posttranslational modification (PTM), through the recruitment of effector proteins (i.e., "readers") that signal downstream events, plays key roles in regulating a variety of cellular processes. To understand how a PTM is recognized, it is necessary to find its readers and, importantly, the location of the binding pockets responsible for PTM recognition. Although various methods have been developed to identify PTM readers, it remains a challenge to directly map the PTM-binding regions, especially for intrinsically disordered domains. Here, we demonstrate a photo-crosslinkable, clickable, and cleavable tri-functional amino acid, ADdis-Cys, that when coupled with mass spectrometry (ADdis-Cys-MS) can not only identify PTM readers from complex proteomes but also simultaneously map their PTM-recognition modules. Using ADdis-Cys-MS, we successfully identify the binding sites of several reader-PTM interactions, among which we discover human C1QBP as a histone chaperone. This robust method should find wide applications in examining other histone or non-histone PTM-mediated protein-protein interactions.
