Histone proteins are crucial in the study of chromatin dynamics owing to their wide-ranging implications in the regulation of gene expression. Modifications of histones are integral to these regulatory processes in concert with associated proteins, such as transcription factors and coactivators. One of the biochemical techniques available to enhance analysis of histone proteins is chemical derivatization using propionic anhydride. In this protocol, we describe the use of propionylation to efficiently derivatize acid-extracted histones from rice. We also synthesize H3 and H4 tryptic peptides, thus mimicking the nature of derivatized extracted peptides to aid in identification and quantification using targeted-mass spectrometry. Here we make available the masses of the precursor ions and the retention times (RT) of each synthesized peptide. These provide useful information to facilitate histone data analysis. Lastly, we note that we will distribute these synthetic peptides in nanomolar (nM) concentrations to those who wish to utilize them for assays and further experimental studies.
