Abstract
Chromatin structure, transcription, DNA replication, and repair are regulated via locus-specific incorporation of histone variants and posttranslational modifications that guide effector chromatin-binding proteins. Here we report unbiased, quantitative interactomes for the replication-coupled (H3.1) and replication-independent (H3.3) histone H3 variants based on BioID proximity labeling, which allows interactions in intact, living cells to be detected. Along with a significant proportion of previously reported interactions detected by affinity purification followed by mass spectrometry, three quarters of the 608 histone-associated proteins that we identified are new, uncharacterized histone associations. The data reveal important biological nuances not captured by traditional biochemical means. For example, we found that the chromatin assembly factor-1 histone chaperone not only deposits the replication-coupled H3.1 histone variant during S-phase but also associates with H3.3 throughout the cell cycle in vivo. We also identified other variant-specific associations, such as with transcription factors, chromatin regulators, and with the mitotic machinery. Our proximity-based analysis is thus a rich resource that extends the H3 interactome and reveals new sets of variant-specific associations.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
