The multisubunit Sin3 corepressor complex regulates gene transcription through deacetylation of nucleosomes. However, the full range of Sin3 activities and targets is not well understood. Here, we have investigated genome-wide binding of mouse Sin3 and RBP2 as well as histone modifications and nucleosome positioning as a function of myogenic differentiation. Remarkably, we find that Sin3 complexes spread immediately downstream of the transcription start site on repressed and transcribed genes during differentiation. We show that RBP2 is part of a Sin3 complex and that on a subset of E2F4 target genes, the coordinated activity of Sin3 and RBP2 leads to deacetylation, demethylation, and repositioning of nucleosomes. Our work provides evidence for coordinated binding of Sin3, chromatin modifications, and chromatin remodeling within discrete regulatory regions, suggesting a model in which spreading of Sin3 binding is ultimately linked to permanent gene silencing on a subset of E2F4 target genes.

SAP18 protein was originally discovered in association with the SIN3 transcriptional repressor complex. Subsequent biochemical fractionation studies identified SAP18 as a component of another distinct trimeric complex termed as the apoptosis- and splicing-associated protein (ASAP) complex. The existence of SAP18 in distinct complexes highlights its dual role in transcriptional and splicing regulation.

Dynamic shuttling of proteins between the nucleus and cytoplasm orchestrates vital functions in eukaryotes. Here, we reveal the multifaceted functions of Arabidopsis Sin3-associated protein 18 kDa (SAP18) in the regulation of development and heat-stress tolerance. Proteomic analysis demonstrated that SAP18 is a core component of the nuclear apoptosis- and splicing-associated protein (ASAP) complex in Arabidopsis, contributing to the precise splicing of genes associated with leaf development.

Sin3 is an evolutionarily conserved repressor protein complex mainly associated with histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity. Many proteins are part of Sin3/HDAC complexes, and the function of most of these members remains poorly understood. SAP25, a previously identified Sin3A associated protein of 25 kDa, has been proposed to participate in regulating gene expression programs involved in the immune response but the exact mechanism of this regulation is unclear.

Article Synopsis
- Epigenetic mechanisms, particularly involving TET family proteins, are essential in the development of human diseases, including kidney disorders, by modifying DNA methylation.
- TET proteins convert 5-methylcytosine (5mC) into various forms, facilitating DNA demethylation and influencing RNA, gene expression, and chromatin structure.
- Research indicates that TET proteins significantly decrease during kidney injuries, highlighting their crucial role in both acute and chronic kidney diseases, with implications for potential clinical applications.

Article Synopsis
- The retina is part of the central nervous system and regrowing axons after injury is a challenge due to the lack of regenerative capabilities in its neurons.
- This study aimed to understand the molecular features of the retina under both neurodegenerative and regenerative conditions using a technique called Data-Independent Acquisition Mass Spectrometry to analyze proteins from different types of retinas.
- A total of 5,750 proteins were identified, revealing significant interactions with various signaling pathways and potential biomarkers that could aid neuro-regeneration, especially in conditions like glaucoma.
