Caco-2 cells were cultured in 6-well plates and incubated with taurine for 48 h. The cells were then homogenized, and the nuclear extract was prepared using the ChIP assay. The ChIP assay was performed using ChIP-IT Express (Active Motif, Carlsbad, CA, USA), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. To quantify the number of DNA fragments containing the TXNIP promoter region bound by Ets-1 protein, real-time PCR was performed. The primer sequences were as follows: human TXNIP promoter, 5′-TCGGATCTTTCTCCAGCAAT-3′ (forward), and 5′-AAATCGAGGAAACCCCTTTG-3′ (reverse).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay was performed using the ChIP-IT Express magnetic chromatin immunoprecipitation kit (Active Motif, Carlsbad, CA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Panc1, L3.6pL, MiaPaCa2, RKO and SW480 cancer cells were treated with DMSO, DIM-C-pPhOH (15, 20 μM), or DIM-C-pPhCO2Me (15, 20 μM) for 24 hr. Cells were then fixed with 1% formaldehyde, and the cross-linking reaction was stopped by addition of 0.125 M glycine. After washing twice with phosphate-buffered saline, cells were scraped and pelleted. Collected cells were hypotonically lysed, and nuclei were collected. Nuclei were then sonicated to the desired chromatin length (~200 to 1,500 bp). The sonicated chromatin was immunoprecipitated with normal IgG, p300 (Santa Cruz), Sp1 (Abcam), NR4A1 (Novus Biologicals), Sp3, Sp4 (Santa Cruz), or RNA polymerase II (pol II; Active Motif) antibodies and protein A-conjugated magnetic beads at 4°C for overnight. After the magnetic beads were extensively washed, protein-DNA cross-links were reversed and eluted. DNA was prepared by proteinase K digestion followed by PCR amplification. The primers for detection of the β1-integrin promoter region were 5′-TCACCACCCTTCGTGACAC -3′ (sense) and 5′-GAGATCCTGCATCTCGGAAG-3′ (antisense). PCR products were resolved on a 2% agarose gel in the presence of RGB-4103 GelRed Nucleic Acid Stain.

We used UCSC Genome Browser (http://genome.ucsc.edu/) to obtain the human ENO3 genomic sequence. The potential p53 repressive response elements (p53RREs), which are consisting of four canonical p53-binding sites (5’-RRRCW-3′) arranged head to tail and matching >90%, were identified by Vector NTI Advance 10 software (Invitrogen).
ChIP assay was performed with ChIP-IT Express (Active Motif) following the manufacturer's protocol. A-204 cells were fixed with 1% formaldehyde on a shaking platform for 10 min at room temperature following by sonication to shear the chromatin. Samples were immunoprecipitated with mouse monoclonal anti-p53 antibody or control mouse IgG serum (10 μg/ml) for PCR amplification. CD44 served as the positive p53RRE control [21 (link)].

ChIP assays were carried out using a kit (ACTIVE MOTIF, ChIP-IT Express, catalog #53008). Briefly, cells (2 × 107) in a 10 cm culture dish were treated with 1% formaldehyde to cross-link chromatin-associated proteins to DNA. The cell lysates were subjected to ultrasound for 9–10 sets of 10-s pulses at 40% output to shear the DNA into fragments between 200 and 1000 bps. Equal cell lysates were respectively incubated with 1 μg of anti-Flag antibody (Sigma) and anti-IgG antibody (Millipore) as negative control. All the above chromatin supernatants were incubated with 20 μl magnetic proteinG beads overnight at 4 °C with rotation. Second day, the protein-DNA complexes were reversed and purified for pure DNA. The human SNAI1 promoter was amplified with RT-PCR.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The assay was performed using ChIP-IT Express (Active Motif, CA). In brief, 0.54 ml of 37% formaldehyde was added to RAW 264.7 cells in a 15-cm cell culture dish containing 20 ml of culture medium. Cells were incubated on a shaking platform for 10 min at room temperature for cross-linking of DNA to proteins. Treated cells were then washed with Glycine Stop-Fix Solution and followed by fragmentation of chromatin DNA with sonication and immunoprecipitation of targeted protein-chromatin DNA complexes with an antibody against Sp1 or c-Jun using a protocol for ChIP assay provided by the manufacturer. Then, the isolated protein-chromatin DNA complexes were heated at 65°C for 2.5 h for reverse crosslinking, followed by deproteinization with proteinase K. Finally, MFG-E8 promoter bound to Sp1 or c-Jun were detected using PCR with the following sets of primers: Sp1-F 5′-AATTTCCCCCTGTCCAGTCTAT-3′ and Sp1-R 5′-CTCCTCTCACTCCGGAATAAATC-3′ for the −87 to +31 region; AP-1F 5′-AGGAAACAGGGTCCCATTCT-3′ and AP-1R 5′-AGCATGCTGGAGACCCTAGA-3′ for the −466 to −266 region. The non-specific primers (NSP) used for the post-ChIP PCR were NSP-F 5′-TCCCAAGTGCTGGGATTAAGG-3′ and NSP-R: 5′-AACTCTCAGCTCCTCCTGCACC -3′. The NSP primers detected a region located at about 2.5 kb from −466 nt upstream of the MFG-E8 promoter. The PCR products were analyzed with 2% agarose gel.

lysed with lysis buffer with proteinase inhibitor cocktail and PMSF and
homogenized 60 times by small tight homogenizer. Cell pellets were
re-suspended with sharing buffer, and sonicated 30 minutes by the following
settings: 30 s on, 30 s off, level at H, (Bioruptor XL). Five %/volume of
each sample was saved as input. The left of the supernatant was incubated
with 2 μg antibody (H3K27ac or normal rabbit IgG) and protein G beads
for overnight at 4°C. After reversing cross-link and proteinase K
treatment, immunoprecipitated DNA was purified with ChIP DNA Clean &
concentrator-5 (ZYMO Research) according to the manual. DNA libraries were
constructed following standard protocol and submitted to the Center for
Cancer Research Sequencing Facility (Frederick).

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.
