Despite the continued analysis of HDAC inhibitors in clinical trials, the heterogeneous nature of the protein complexes they target limits our understanding of the beneficial and off-target effects associated with their application. Among the many HDAC protein complexes found within the cell, Sin3 complexes are conserved from yeast to humans and likely play important roles as regulators of transcriptional activity. The presence of two Sin3 paralogs in humans, SIN3A and SIN3B, may result in a heterogeneous population of Sin3 complexes and contributes to our poor understanding of the functional attributes of these complexes. Here, we profile the interaction networks of SIN3A and SIN3B to gain insight into complex composition and organization. In accordance with existing data, we show that Sin3 paralog identity influences complex composition. Additionally, chemical crosslinking mass spectrometry identifies domains that mediate interactions between Sin3 proteins and binding partners. The characterization of rare SIN3B proteoforms provides additional evidence for the existence of conserved and divergent elements within human Sin3 proteins. Together, these findings shed light on both the shared and divergent properties of human Sin3 proteins and highlight the heterogeneous nature of the complexes they organize.

The Nucleosome Remodeling and Deacetylase (NuRD) complex is a chromatin-modifying assembly that regulates gene expression and DNA damage repair. Despite its importance, limited structural information is available on the complex and a detailed understanding of its mechanism is lacking. We investigated the molecular architecture of three NuRD sub-complexes: MTA1-HDAC1-RBBP4 (MHR), MTA1N-HDAC1-MBD3GATAD2CC (MHM), and MTA1-HDAC1-RBBP4-MBD3-GATAD2 (NuDe) using Bayesian integrative structure determination with IMP (Integrative Modeling Platform), drawing on information from SEC-MALLS, DIA-MS, XLMS, negative stain EM, X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, secondary structure and homology predictions. The structures were corroborated by independent cryo-EM maps, biochemical assays, and known cancer-associated mutations. Our integrative structure of the 2:2:2 MHM complex shows asymmetric binding of MBD3, whereas our structure of the NuDe complex shows MBD3 localized precisely to a single position distant from the MTA1 dimerization interface. Our models suggest a possible mechanism by which asymmetry is introduced in NuRD, and indicate three previously unrecognized subunit interfaces in NuDe: HDAC1C-MTA1BAH, MTA1BAH-MBD3, and HDAC160-100-MBD3. We observed that a significant number of cancer-associated mutations mapped to protein-protein interfaces in NuDe. Our approach also allows us to localize regions of unknown structure, such as HDAC1C and MBD3IDR, thereby resulting in the most complete structural characterization of these NuRD sub-complexes so far.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
