PC9 and HCC827 cells were washed twice with ice-cold PBS and lysed with RIPA buffer (50 mM Tris, 1 mM EDTA, 150 mM NaCl, 1% Sodium deoxycholate, 0.1% SDS) (P0013B; Beyotime; China). The lysed samples were centrifuged for 15 min at a maximum speed (14000 rpm). The whole cell extracts were quantified by BCA Protein Assay kit (P0012S; Beyotime; China) and boiled for 5 min. Denatured proteins was separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and then transferred to PVDF membranes (Millipore). Subsequently, PVDF membranes were blocked with 5% milk-powder in PBST (1×PBS containing 0.1% Tween-20) for 1 ~ 2 h and then incubated overnight with primary antibodies, including CARM1 (Abcam; ab245467), CCNE2 (Abcam; ab32103), H3R17me2a (Abcam; ab8284), H3R26me2a (Abcam; ab194679), Histone H3 (Abcam; ab1791) and GAPDH (Abcam; ab181602). After washing with PBST, the PVDF membranes were incubated with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody (Sigma). Protein expression was visualized by enhanced chemiluminescence detection kit (Thermo Scientific Pierce). GAPDH was used as a loading control.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In brief, PC9 and HCC827 cells were collected and cross-linked with formaldehyde at room temperature for 10 min. Then, the chromatin is randomly sheared by sonication to generate chromatin fragments, generally ranging from 200 to 500 base-pairs. After sonication, 2 μg of CARM1 (Abcam; ab245467), H3R17me2a (Abcam; ab8284), H3R26me2a (Abcam; ab194679) or control rabbit IgG (Beyotime; A7016) were incubated overnight with chromatin fragments and protein G agarose. After washing with low salt, high salt, LiCl and TE buffers, the immune complexes were treated with elution buffer and eluted from the protein G agarose beads. DNA was extracted with phenol/chloroform and followed by ethanol precipitation. Purified DNA was dissolved in TE buffer or ddH2O and analyzed by real-time PCR with specific primers for CCNE2 promoter. The primer sequences were as follows: (F) GAAAGACCTGGGTTCCCTGA, ® CTGCAACTCCTGGATTTCGG.

CARM1 Methylation Motif Antibody Generation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
CARM1 substrate motif antibodies were raised against an antigen mixture of six different CARM1 methylated motifs (Fig 1A), to specifically recognize endogenous proteins when asymmetrically dimethylated by CARM1. The meMED12 antibodies were raised against the peptide sequence TSVYR*QQQP of human MED12 protein (NP_005111). This work was performed in collaboration with Cell Signaling Technology (CST). mePABP1 antibody was raised against the peptide sequence CGAIR*PAAPR*PPFS of human PABP1 protein (NP_002559) (Cheng & Bedford, 2011 (link)). R* denotes asymmetrically dimethylated arginine residue. The MED4, MED30, and CDK8 antibodies were a gift from Thomas Boyer (University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio). The CARM1 antibody, used for ChIP-seq, was a gift from Stéphane Richard (McGill University). The following antibodies were obtained commercially: H3R17me2a (07-214; Millipore and ab8284; Abcam), MED12 (A300-774A; Bethyl), SRC-1 (2191; CST), SRC-3/AIB1 (611105; BD Transduction), CARM1 (A300-420A; Bethyl), PRMT1 (A300-722A; Bethyl), PRMT6 (A300-929A; Bethyl), CDK8 (SC-1521; Santa Cruz), and FLAG (F7425 [rabbit IgG] and F3165 [mouse IgG]; Sigma-Aldrich).

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.
