Global analysis of histone lysine acetylation and proteomic changes in EC109 cells treated with the histone deacetylase inhibitor FK228

Abstract

Abstract. FK228 is a selective inhibitor of histone deacetylases that exhibits marked antitumor activity in cancer cells and xenograft models. However, the effect of FK228 on the global profile of histone lysine acetylation and the proteome of EC109 cells remains poorly understood. The present study aimed at analyzing histone lysine acetylation and identifying the proteomic changes in EC109 cells following treatment with FK228, using the stable isotope labelling by amino acids in cell culture technique and a high-sensitivity mass spectrometer. In total, 87 acetylation sites and 3,515 proteins revealed changes in response to FK228 treatment. Of the 87 acetylation sites, 25 were quantifiable and 19 were quantified with ratio of >1.3. Notably, no downregulated lysine acetylation (Kac) sites were quantified in the present study and the 62 unquantified Kac sites were only identified in the FK228-treated cells. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that these quantifiable proteins were primarily involved in multiple biological functions and metabolic pathways as well as in protein complexes. The results of the present study revealed the extensive lysine acetylome and proteome in EC109 cells and expanded upon the current understanding of the anticancer mechanism of FK228 in EC109 cells.

Acetylome profiling of Vibrio alginolyticus reveals its role in bacterial virulence

“…The desalted peptides were analyzed using an EASY-nLCTM 1200 UHPLC system (ThermoFisher) coupled to an Orbitrap Q Exactive HF-X mass spectrometer (ThermoFisher) in the data-dependent acquisition (DDA) mode [24]. Briefly, peptides in 0.1% FA (Formic acid) were injected onto a Acclaim PepMap100 For DDA, the Q-Exactive HF-X mass spectrometer was operated in positive mode with spray voltage of 2.3 kV and the capillary temperature was 320°C.…”

“…The tryptic peptides were dissolved in 0.1% formic acid (solvent A), directly loaded onto a reversed-phase precolumn (Acclaim PepMap 100; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). Peptide separation was performed using a reversed-phase analytical column (Acclaim PepMap RSLC; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) with gradient that comprised of an increase from 6 to 23% solvent B (0.1% formic acid in 98% acetonitrile) over 26 min, 23 to 35% in 8 min and climbing to 80% in 3 min then holding at 80% for the last 3 min, all at a constant flow rate of 400 nL/min on an EASY-nLC 1000 UPLC system [16].…”
