To examine H3K4 methylation or epitope-tagged H3, cell extracts were prepared following the bead-beat procedure as described66 (link). A twofold serial dilution of extracts were resolved in 15% SDS–PAGE and transferred onto a polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane. The following antibodies were used in western blotting (dilutions used, source and catalogue numbers are indicated within parentheses): α-H3K4me1 (1:1,000, Active Motif, 39,297), α-H3K4me2 (1:10,000, Millipore, 07–030), α-H3K4me3 (1:7,500, Active Motif, 39,159), α-V5 (1:50,000, Bio-Rad, MCA1360) and α-Flag (1:5,000, Sigma, F3165). The histone H3 loading was monitored using α-H3 (1:2,000, Abcam, ab46765). Full-length images of the blots are shown in Supplementary Figs 20–22.

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.
