Abstract | Chromatin is the assembly of genomic DNA and proteins packaged in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells, which together are crucial in regulating a plethora of cellular processes. Histones may be the best known class of protein constituents in chromatin, which are decorated by a range of post-translational modifications to recruit accessory proteins and protein complexes to execute specific functions, ranging from DNA compaction, repair, transcription, and duplication, all in a dynamic fashion and depending on the cellular state. The key role of chromatin in cellular fitness is emphasized by the deregulation of chromatin determinants predisposing to different diseases, including cancer. For this reason, deep investigation of chromatin composition is fundamental to better understand cellular physiology. Proteomic approaches have played a crucial role to understand critical aspects of this complex interplay, benefiting from the ability to identify and quantify proteins and their modifications in an unbiased manner. This review gives an overview of the proteomic approaches that have been developed by combining mass spectrometry-based with tailored biochemical and genetic methods to examine overall protein make-up of chromatin, to characterize chromatin domains, to determine protein interactions, and to decipher the broad spectrum of histone modifications that represent the quintessence of chromatin function. |
