Immunoprecipitation was performed as described in a previous study [42 (link)]. Total MCF-7 cell lysates were precleared with rabbit IgG for 2 h and subsequently immunoprecipitated with an anti-RNF187 antibody (HPA030098, Sigma) overnight, while rabbit IgG (Santa Cruz) was used as the negative control. Bound proteins were analyzed by western blotting with an anti-P53 antibody (SC126, Santa Cruz). For the overexpression experiment, HEK293 cells were cotransfected with 5 μg of GFP-RNF187 plasmid (full-length RNF187 or domain deletion mutants) and 5 μg of P53 plasmid. Cell lysates were precleared with IgG and subsequently incubated with an anti-P53 (SC126, Santa Cruz) antibody, while mouse IgG was used as the negative control. Bound proteins were analyzed by western blotting with an anti-GFP antibody (AB290, Abcam). Accordingly, the GFP-P53 plasmid (full-length P53 or domain deletion mutants) was cotransfected with 5 μg of Myc-RNF187 plasmid in 10 cm dishes. Cell lysates were precleared with IgG and subsequently incubated with an anti-Myc (AB32, Abcam) antibody, while rabbit IgG was used as the negative control. Bound proteins were analyzed by western blotting.
