Sections (6 μm) were prepared from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded blocks for IHC stains with adequate controls. IHC was performed using the Avidin/Biotin blocking kit (Vector Labs, SP-2001) staining with antibodies against S100 (1:250 dilution; catalog ab41548, Abcam), KI-67 (prediluted; catalog 790-4286, Ventana), and COL4A (1:1000 dilution; catalog ab6586, Abcam) as previously described (49 (link)). Immunolabeling for anti-histone H3 (tri methyl K27) (1:200 dilution; catalog ab6002, Abcam) was performed on formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded sections. Briefly, following dewaxing and rehydration, slides were immersed in 1% tween-20; then, heat-induced antigen retrieval was performed in a steamer using 1.0 mM EDTA pH 9.0 (catalog AP9004500, Thermo Fisher Scientific) for 45 minutes. Slides were rinsed in PBST, and endogenous peroxidase and phosphatase was blocked (catalog S2003, Dako). Sections were then incubated with primary antibody anti–histone H3 (tri methyl K27) (1:200 dilution; catalog ab6002, Abcam) for overnight at 4°C. The primary antibodies were detected by 30-minute incubation with HRP-labeled secondary antibody (catalog PV6114, Leica Microsystems), followed by detection with 3,3′-Diaminobenzidine (Sigma-Aldrich), counterstaining with Harris hematoxylin, dehydration, and mounting.

ChIP-PCR Quantification of Histone Modifications

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The ChIP experiment was performed based on a previously published protocol [69 (link)]. Simply, 0.5 g of 3-day-old or four-leaf-old seedlings of Oschr4-5 and WT were first harvested and crosslinked in 1% formaldehyde under vacuum for 15 min or 30 min, respectively. Then the isolated chromatin complex was fragmented to 200–500 bp by sonication, and 1% of the fragmented chromatin from each tube was kept as input DNA. The chromatin modification states of several target genes were analyzed using antibodies recognizing H3K4me3 (ab8580, Abcam, Cambridge, UK) and H3K27me3 (ab6002, Abcam) and the pre-immune serum (02-6502, Invitrogen) as a negative control. Then the immune complexes were collected with Protein A Agarose beads (P3476, Sigma). After reversing the crosslink, the precipitated and input DNAs were detected by real-time PCR, and the enrichment of H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 of each genes was quantified by normalizing the threshold cycle (Ct) of the ChIP sample with that of the input with 2(Ct of input − Ct of sample ChIP). Specific primers used in ChIP-PCR are shown in Table S4.

For chromatin shearing in lysates of cells transfected with small interfering RNA (siRNA) (siHERES or siControl), we used waterbath sonication for 30 cycles under cooling conditions, 15 s on, 30 s off (170–190 W). The fragmented chromatin was extracted using a High-Sensitivity ChIP kit (ab185913; Abcam), according to the manufacturer’s protocol. A total of 5 μg of total chromatin was used for ChIP with anti-H3K27me3 (ab6002; Abcam) and the mock immunoprecipitation (IP) (IgG, ab185913; Abcam) at 4 °C overnight. After cross-link reversal and DNA purification, 1 μL of eluted DNA was used for qRT-PCR with target region primers. The primer sequences for qRT-PCR are shown in Dataset S9.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ChIP assays were performed based on the protocol from the manufacturer (17‐10086; Merck Millipore, Sigma‐Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA). Briefly, cells (1 × 107) were treated with 1% formaldehyde for 10 min to cross‐link the histones to the DNA. After sonication of cell pellets, the lysate was incubated with 10 μL of anti‐K27 tri‐methylated histone H3 (ab6002; Abcam). To collect the immunoprecipitated complexes, magnetic beads were added and incubated with the lysate overnight at 4 °C. After the cross‐linking was reversed, DNA was extracted and purified using the phenol/chloroform method, ethanol‐precipitated, and dissolved in water. ChIP products were assayed via SYBR Green ChIP‐qPCR using the following set of primers: (sense) GCAGAAATACCTCACCAAGTTTTTA and (antisense) TTTGGCATACTTACAGACACAAGAC, encompassing the pri‐miR‐1275 promoter region.

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.
