Genomic DNA was prepared from 1x108 cells according to standard protocols and digested with ApaI/XhoI, ApaI/NcoI and ApaI/SacII (New England Biolabs) for analysis of CEB1-1.8 I, CEB1-1.8 II and CEB1Gmut-1.7, respectively [31 (link), 63 (link)]. The digested DNA was resolved in 1% agarose gel and blotted onto Hybond-XL membrane (GE Healthcare). After transfer, the membrane was cross-linked with UV and hybridized with CEB1-0.6 and CEB1 Gmut probes for CEB1-1.8 and CEB1Gmut -1.7, respectively. 32P labelling of DNA probes was performed by random priming using Klenow fragment exonuclease (New England Biolabs), in presence of [α-32P]-CTP and hybridizations were performed in Church buffer at 55°C. Radioactive signals were detected using a BIORAD molecular imager FX.
