Abstract
Resolving protein–protein interactions (PPIs) inside biomolecular condensates is crucial for elucidating their functions and regulation mechanisms. The transient nature of condensates and the multiple localizations of clients, however, have rendered it challenging to determine compartment-specific PPIs. Here we developed a condensation-enhanced, spatially directed, metabolic incorporation-assisted photocrosslinking strategy—termed DenseMAP—for spatiotemporally resolved dissection of the direct protein interactome within condensates. By leveraging our condensation-enhanced photocrosslinker and the spatially directed biotin tagging, DenseMAP enabled stress-granule-specific interactome mapping of the N6-methyladenosine readers YTHDF1 and YTHDF2, and uncovered the functional role of phosphorylation on the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein in regulating virus replication. Further applying DenseMAP for direct interactome mapping of the subcompartmental scaffold protein NPM1 deciphered nucleolar granular component proteome, and unveiled the critical role of SUMOylation in controlling nucleolar proteome homeostasis. DenseMAP provides a platform technology for analysing functional PPI networks within subcellular and subcompartmental condensates under diverse physiological and/or pathological settings.
期刊介绍:
Nature Chemistry is a monthly journal that publishes groundbreaking and significant research in all areas of chemistry. It covers traditional subjects such as analytical, inorganic, organic, and physical chemistry, as well as a wide range of other topics including catalysis, computational and theoretical chemistry, and environmental chemistry.
The journal also features interdisciplinary research at the interface of chemistry with biology, materials science, nanotechnology, and physics. Manuscripts detailing such multidisciplinary work are encouraged, as long as the central theme pertains to chemistry.
Aside from primary research, Nature Chemistry publishes review articles, news and views, research highlights from other journals, commentaries, book reviews, correspondence, and analysis of the broader chemical landscape. It also addresses crucial issues related to education, funding, policy, intellectual property, and the societal impact of chemistry.
Nature Chemistry is dedicated to ensuring the highest standards of original research through a fair and rigorous review process. It offers authors maximum visibility for their papers, access to a broad readership, exceptional copy editing and production standards, rapid publication, and independence from academic societies and other vested interests.
Overall, Nature Chemistry aims to be the authoritative voice of the global chemical community.
