MS-based proteomic characterization of SIN3-containing complexes in C. elegans

The SIN3 transcriptional coregulator influences gene expression through multiple interactions that include histone deacetylases (HDACs). Haploinsufficiency and mutations in SIN3 are the underlying cause of Witteveen-Kolk syndrome and related intellectual disability (ID)/autism syndromes, emphasizing its key role in development. However, little is known about the diversity of its interactions and functions in developmental processes. To gain insight in the repertoire of proteins that interact with SIN-3, we performed IP-MS on mCherry::SIN-3 expressing embryos. Furthermore, we analyzed the partnership of ARID-1::GFP, ARID-1 being an already described subunit of the SIN-3L complex.
