Profiling the Regulation of Histone Methylation and Demethylation by Metabolites and Metals

Methods Mol Biol. 2022:2529:121-133. doi: 10.1007/978-1-0716-2481-4_6.

Abstract

Here we describe how to profile the contribution of metabolism and implication of metals to histone methylation and demethylation. The techniques described with the adequate protocols are metabolomics, quantitative proteomics, inductively coupled mass spectrometry and nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry.

Keywords: Histone demethylation; Histone methylation; ICP-MS; Metabolomics; Metals; NanoSIMS; Proteomics.
