Chemical crosslinking extends and complements UV crosslinking in analysis of RNA/DNA nucleic acid–protein interaction sites by mass spectrometry

Open access

Published version of a preprint

Abstract

Ultraviolet (UV) crosslinking with mass spectrometry (XL-MS) has been established for identifying RNA- and DNA-binding proteins along with their domains and amino acids involved. Here, we explore chemical XL-MS for RNA–protein, DNA–protein, and nucleotide–protein complexes in vitro and in vivo. We introduce a specialized nucleotide–protein-crosslink search engine, NuXL, for robust and fast identification of such crosslinks at amino acid resolution. Chemical XL-MS complements UV XL-MS by generating different crosslink species, increasing crosslinked protein yields in vivo almost four-fold, and thus it expands the structural information accessible via XL-MS. Our workflow facilitates integrative structural modelling of nucleic acid–protein complexes and adds spatial information to the described RNA-binding properties of enzymes, for which crosslinking sites are often observed close to their cofactor-binding domains. In vivo UV and chemical XL-MS data from E. coli cells analysed by NuXL establish a comprehensive nucleic acid–protein crosslink inventory with crosslink sites at amino acid level for >1500 proteins. Our new workflow combined with the dedicated NuXL search engine identified RNA crosslinks that cover most RNA-binding proteins, with DNA and RNA crosslinks detected in transcriptional repressors and activators.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
