Western blot analyses were conducted as described previously [32 (link)]. Densitometry analysis of the Western blotting bands was performed using ImageJ software. The quantified results were calculated from three independent experiments. The primary antibodies were used as follows: YAP (NOVUS, NB110-58308), TEAD4 (Sigma, WH0007004M1), microtubule-associated protein1 light chain 3 (LC3) (Cell Signaling, #2775), p62 (MBL, pm045), S6 ribosomal protein (Cell Signaling, #2217), and phospho-S6 ribosomal protein (ser235/236) (Cell Signaling, #2211).

ChIP Assay for Transcription Factor Binding

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ChIP was performed using the Simple ChIP Enzymatic Chromatin IP Kit (Magnetic Beads) from Cell Signaling Technology according to the manufacturer’s protocol. MCF7 cells (4 × 106) were harvested for ChIP and formaldehyde cross-linked protein-DNA complexes were precipitated with antibodies against YAP (Cell Signaling Technology), TEAD4 (Sigma-Aldrich) and p65 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology). As negative control, normal mouse IgG and normal rabbit IgG (Merck & Millipore) were utilized. Purified DNA fragments were amplified by real-time PCR with the appropriate primers. Sequences of the real-time PCR primer pairs are as follows (all listed in the 5′–3′ direction):
HK2 primer: F—CGTGTAGGAGACGAGCGGTTC,
R—GGAGTTCCTCTGCCCCTTTC;
IL-6 primer: F—CCACCCTCACCCTCCAACAAA,
R—GAGCCTCAGACATCTCCAGTCCTAT;
CCL2 primer: F—CAGGCTTGTGCCGAGATGTT,
R—GGGAAGGTGAAGGGTATGAA.

Lentiviral Knockdown of Transcription Factors

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) against FOS, GATA2, MAFK, TEAD4TFAP2C, NCOR2, RCOR1 and ZNF362 were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (Supplementary Table S1). A total of 7.3 × 106 HEK293T cells were transfected with 2.5 μg of the pLKO construct with a specific shRNA, 1.7 μg of Δ8.9 and 0.8 μg of VSVG using 15 μl of a GenJet transfection reagent (SignaGen) to generate lentiviruses expressing a specific shRNA. After 24 h, the medium was replaced with the TSC medium. After cultivating at 37°C for 24 h, the viral supernatant was collected, filtered with a syringe filter (0.45 μm) and used to infect TSCs. To knock down individual TFs, 2.5 × 105 TSCs were infected with pLKO-shRNA viral particles in a well of a 12-well plate. Infected cells were incubated overnight, and the medium was replaced with fresh TSC medium supplemented with puromycin to select out the infected cells. To determine the KD efficiency of each TF and profile global gene expression, we harvested the cells after 3 days of selection to get complete KD of an individual TF.

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.
