Figure Lengend Snippet: Generation of the IRF4 Bio mouse strain and in vitro differentiation of primary T cells into Th17 cells (A) Schematic overview of the bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) transgene production for the generation of the IRF4 Bio mouse strain. (B) Cross-breeding of animals: IRF4 Avi mice, containing the BAC transgene, are crossed with ROSA26 BirA mice, ubiquitously expressing BirA ligase under the ROSA26 promoter, resulting in offsprings that express in vivo biotinylated IRF4 (IRF4 Bio ). (C) Western blot analyses of full cellular lysates and nuclear extracts demonstrate successful in vivo biotinylation of IRF4 (left, anti-IRF4 antibody; right, horseradish peroxidase-conjugated streptavidin [SA-HPO]). (D) Workflow for in vitro differentiation of primary Th17 cells.
Article Snippet: For example, in the case of the TF IRF4, good results were achieved using the μMACS FactorFinder Kit by Miltenyi, which has been discontinued.
