Abstract 2630 TAP-MS analysis of FACT interactions and regulation by a ubiquitin ligase, San1

An evolutionarily conserved heterodimeric FACT (Facilitates chromatin transcription) regulates transcription, DNA repair, replication and other cellular processes via its interactions with other proteins. FACT is recently found to be regulated via ubiquitylation and 26S proteasomal degradation, alteration of which is associated with aberrant transcription and genome integrity. However, there has not been a systematic study to analyze FACT interactions proteome-wide in the presence and absence of its UPS (Ubiquitin-proteasome system) regulation, which could reveal new FACT interactors with mechanistic and functional implications.
