Abstract
Chemical cross-linking mass spectrometry has become a popular tool in structural biology. Although several algorithms exist that efficiently analyze data-dependent mass spectrometric data, the algorithm to identify and quantify intermolecular cross-links located at the interaction interface of homodimer molecules was missing. The algorithm in LinX utilizes high mass accuracy for ion identification. In contrast with standard data-dependent analysis, LinX enables the elucidation of cross-linked peptides originating from the interaction interface of homodimers labeled by 14N/15N, including their ratio or cross-links from protein-nucleic acid complexes. The software is written in Java language, and its source code and a detailed user's guide are freely available at https://github.com/KukackaZ/LinX or https://ms-utils.org/LinX. Data are accessible via the ProteomeXchange server with the data set identifier PXD023522.

Abstract
TEAD transcription factors regulate gene expression through interactions with DNA and other proteins. They are crucial for the development of eukaryotic organisms and to control the expression of genes involved mostly in cell proliferation and differentiation; however, their deregulation can lead to tumorigenesis. To study the interactions of TEAD1 with M-CAT motifs and their inverted versions, the KD of each complex was determined, and H/D exchange, quantitative chemical cross-linking, molecular docking, and smFRET were utilized for structural characterization. ChIP-qPCR was employed to correlate the results with a cell line model. The results obtained showed that although the inverted motif has 10× higher KD, the same residues were affected by the presence of M-CAT in both orientations. Molecular docking and smFRET revealed that TEAD1 binds the inverted motif rotated 180°. In addition, the inverted motif was proven to be occupied by TEAD1 in Jurkat cells, suggesting that the low-affinity binding sites present in the human genome may possess biological relevance.
