RPB3 and RPC62 ChlP-seq was performed as described in (Yu et al, Science, 2015 (link)) with the following modifications. Briefly, 2×l07 cells were fixed in 1% formaldehyde for 10 min at room temperature. For RPB3 and RPC62 ChlP-seq, fragmentation of fixed chromatin was performed by sonication of isolated nuclei (Branson Sonicator, Branson) to achieve enrichment of short (100–500 bp) chromatin fragments. 5 μg of RPB3 antibody (A303–771A, Bethyl) or 1 μl of RPC62 anti-serum was added to the chromatin lysate and incubated overnight at 4°C. The next day, Dynabeads Protein A (Thermo Fisher Scientific) was added and incubated with rotation at 4°C for 1.5 hours. Enriched DNA was isolated through extensive wash steps and subsequent reverse cross-linking and purification. To quantify ChlP-qPCR signals, real-time PCR was performed in 20 μl reactions using QuantiTect SYBR Green PCR Kit with primers used at a final concentration of 10 μM on an Applied Biosystems 7300 Real-Time PCR System. Primer sequences are given in Table S1. ChlP-seq libraries were prepared from 5–10 ng ChIP DNA following the instructions of Illumina TruSeq ChIP Library Preparation Kit (IP-202–1012). Libraries were then sequenced on Illumina HiSeq 2500 as 75-bp single-end runs at the Genomics Resource Center at the Rockefeller University.

Primers for FOXQ1 and TFRC were designed using the Primer3 software (http://primer3.ut.ee/); FOXQ1: F: 5′-CGGAGATCAACGAGTACCTCA-3′, R: 5′-CAGTCGTTGAGCGAAAGGTT-3′; TFRC F: 5′-AACAACAGATTTCGGGAATGC-3′, R: 5′-CGTAGGGAGAGAGGAAGTGATA-3′. For statistical analyses, we first compared FOXQ1 expression in all four groups; normal breast tissue, TNBC, luminal, and HER2, using one-way ANOVA. Then, one-tailed unpaired Student’s t-tests and Bonferroni correction were used for multiple comparisons to assess statistical differences.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
