Publication protocol
ChIP and EMSA were performed as previously described48. The association of exogenous NF-κB with ANT1 promoter in HEK293 cells was confirmed using a chromatin immunoprecipitation assay kit # 17-295, Millipore) following the manufacturer’s protocol. Transfected by NF-κB/p65 plasmid, cells each about 5 × 106 cells) were cross-linked by formaldehyde (final concentration of 1%) for 10 min at 37 °C, and then washed by cold PBS twice. The cells were centrifuged and pellets were lysed by 100 μl 1% SDS lysis buffer and sheared by sonication. The sonicated cell supernatant was then diluted by 9 fold (900 μl) ChIP dilution buffer and 1/50 (20 μl) was accepted as input. After the cross-linked proteins and DNA pulled down with p65 antibody (1:100, #8242, CST) or normal IgG as a negative control overnight at 4 degree, the cross links (both input and immunoprecipitated group) were reversed and DNA was recovered by phenol/chloroform extraction. The extract ed DNA was re-dissolved in 20 μl PCR-grade water. 1 μl of input or immunoprecipitated DNA were used as templates and confirmed by PCR (35 cycles) using following promoter primers (ChIP-F:5′-CACCTGCCCAGCCAATGC-3′ and ChIP-R: 5′-CGCAGGCAGCCCGTTCGT-3′). Products of ChIP-PCR were separated on a 1% agarose gel with ethidium bromide. Immunoprecipitation of proteins, after ChIP with antibodies against NF-κB/p65, was confirmed by Western blot analysis before the ChIP-PCR analysis. For EMSA assay, infrared dye-labeled probe (50 nM) were used in respective incubation and the three sense sequences of ANT1 NREs were 5′-AAGGGGGAGCTGCGGGCCAG (NRE1), 5′-GCGGCGGCCCCCTAGCGTCG (NRE2) and 5′-CGCAGGGTCGGGGACTGCGCG (NRE3). Consensus NRE and mutant NRE were 5′-AGTTGAGGGGACTTTCCCAGGC, 5′-CAAAAATGTTCAAAAATGTT.
