Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were transfected with si-WDR5-2 or control siRNA for 72 h. Chromatin immunoprecipitation was conducted with the EZ-Magna ChIP A/G kit (Millipore) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, 1 × 106 cells were used for each reaction. Cells were fixed in 1% formaldehyde at room temperature for 10 min, the nucleus was isolated with nuclear lysis buffer (Millipore) supplemented with protease inhibitor cocktail (Millipore). Chromatin DNA was sonicated and sheared to a length between 200 bp and 1000 bp. The sheared chromatin was immunoprecipitated at 4°C overnight with anti-WDR5 (Abcam, ab56919) and anti-H3K4me3 (Abcam, ab8580) antibodies. Normal rabbit IgG was used as a negative control and the anti-RNA pol-II (Millipore) antibody was used as a positive control. The WDR5, H3K4me3 and RNA pol-II protein level in the ChIP assays were detected by Western blotting (Fig S6). The negative control primers were used to detect the DNA fragment out of genes as a distal region control. Primers for ChIP-qPCR are listed in Supplementary Table 3.

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.
