doi: 10.1038/nature10728
Figure Lengend Snippet: a, Effect of HDAC3 mutations on deacetylase activity of complexes with SMRT-DAD. Residues are mutated to their equivalents in HDAC8. Loop 1 (L1) mutation is H17C/G21A/K25I. Loop 6 (L6) mutation is R264P/L265M. Mut-All mutant is H17C/G21A/K25I/R264P/L265M/R301A. b, Immunoblots showing that the HDAC3 mutations perturb interaction with the SMRT-DAD. c, Deacetylase assays of HDAC3-FLAG reconstituted with bacterially-expressed SMRT-DAD in the presence of various inositol phosphates. IP4, IP3 and IP6 are Ins(1,4,5,6)P 4 , Ins(1,4,5)P 3 and Ins(1,2,3,4,5,6)P 6 respectively. d , Synthesis pathway for Ins(1,4,5,6)P 4 from PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 . Yeast Arg82 converts Ins(1,4,5)P 3 to Ins(1,4,5,6)P 4 . In mammals, both IPMK and PTEN are required to make Ins(1,4,5,6)P 4 .
Article Snippet: His6-tagged SMRT-DAD was expressed in E. coli strain Rosetta (Novagen) and initial purification was carried out using Nickel NTA agarose (Qiagen) followed by gel filtration chromatography using a Superdex-S200 26/60 column (GE Healthcare) in buffer containing 50 mM Tris/HCl pH 7.5, 50 mM potassium acetate.
