Acetylation of K64 in histone H3 is a novel histone modification.(A) CID MS/MS spectrum of the tryptic peptide (K(ac)LPFQR; m/z [MH22+] 415.74823) derived from endogenous histone H3 demonstrating K64 acetylation. The presence of the b2, the y5, the y5-NH3(y5*) and the immonium ions derived from (ɛ) acetyl-lysine (enlarged spectrum inlet) are used for site localization to lysine 64. (B) H3K64 is on the lateral surface of the histone octamer. 3D modelling of a nucleosome. H3 dimer is shown in blue and the proximity of acetylated H3K64 (red rectangle) with the DNA is highlighted in the zoomed-in inset. In red are shown the main-chain and the side-chain of lysine 64. The acetyl group linked to the side-chain terminal nitrogen atom (in blue) appears in green, with its oxygen atom in purple. All hydrogen atoms are displayed in grey.

MS/MS spectra of H3K64ac peptides.CID MS/MS spectra of a chymotryptic (LIRK(ac)LPF; m/z [MH22+] 464.80363) and a tryptic (K(ac)LPFQR; m/z [MH22+] 415.74823) peptide (A and B panels, respectively) derived from endogenous histone H3 demonstrating the acetylation of K64. The mass difference between the b4 and b3 ion of the chymotryptic peptide LIRK(ac)LPF indicates the presence of acetyl-lysine. This is further corroborated by the virtually identical MS/MS spectral overlay of the tryptic peptide K(ac)LPFQR (see also Figure 1) either derived from endogenous H3 (illustrated in black) or the synthetic peptide STELLIRK(ac)LPFQRLVGC(amide) (highlighted in red).DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.01632.004

Schematic of eviction assay (left) shows chromatin templates assembled on a biotin-labeled pG5-MLP promoter fragment. Recruitment of transcriptional activators and p300 causes displacement of histone octamers, and histones can be trapped onto a supercoiled plasmid (not shown) by Nap1.
