The 'histone code' hypothesis proposes that specific combinations of histone modifications influence gene expression. If a researcher discovered a novel histone modification, which experimental approach would be LEAST informative for initially investigating its potential role in gene regulation?
Analyzing the genome-wide distribution of the modification using ChIP-seq.
Correlating the presence of the modification with gene expression levels.
Assessing the binding of specific regulatory proteins to the modified histone.
Determining the crystal structure of the modified histone.
