The transfection-mediated co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assay was employed to identify the physical interaction of EBNA2 with BS69CC-MYND using EBV-negative B lymphoma cells (BJAB). Cells were co-transfected with the expression plasmids of EBNA2 (E2) and flag- BS69CC-MYND wild type, Q546A mutant (Q546A), or Q546A/W550A mutant (Q546A/W550A) and subjected to IP analysis using M2-conjugated sepharose (Sigma). The immunoprecipitated samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE, followed by Western blotting with antibodies for EBNA2 (Millipore) and M2 (Sigma), respectively. The antibody for actin internal control was purchased from Santa Cruz. The proteins were detected and visualized using an ECL detection kit (Millipore). ChIP assays were performed using BJAB cells that have been transfected with LMP1-promoter reporter plasmid (LMP1-Luc) and flag-BS69CC-MYND wild type or Q546A, with or without E2 using M2-conjugated sepharose and IgG negative control (Millipore) following the previously described protocol [53). The protein levels of endogenous BS69 in the obtained cell lines were determined by Western blot using BS69 antibody (Santa Cruz biotechnology). The antibodies for immune blots are 6F9/60 (Novas Biologicals) for EBNA1, MABE8 (Millipore) for EBNA2, and C4 (Santa cruz) for actin internal control. The proteins were detected and visualized using an ECL detection kit (Millipore).

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.
