Figure Lengend Snippet: PPI mediated by EBNA1 and PAX5 in vitro and in vivo. (A) The expression plasmids of FPAX5, EBNA1, or EBNA2 were used for transfection-mediated co-IP assays. To avoid nucleic acid-dependent PPI occurring, all of the cells were collected in lysis buffer supplemented with DNase I and RNase A prior to conducting the immunoprecipitation assay for this and all of the following co-IP experiments. M2 agarose-precipitated matrices were blotted for FPAX5, EBNA1, or EBNA2 with the use of 2% input of the lysate as a loading control. (B) The expression plasmids of EBNA1, FPAX5, or FPAX6 were included in the co-IP assay. The immune blots for the indicated proteins are shown. (C) LCL lysate was used to perform co-IP assays using antibodies for EBNA1 (E1), PAX5 (P5), nucleolin (NCL), or IgG control. Western blotting was performed with 2% of the input as loading control. (D) Ni- nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) Sepharose-bound His-tagged PAX5 (HPAX5) was used as the protein bait to pull down cell lysates derived from LCL or BJAB cells. The HPAX5-bound proteins were identified by immune blot analysis. Five percent input of each protein from the lysates is shown. (E) LCL, BJAB stably expressing Flag-tagged EBNA1 (FEBNA1) (BJAB-FEBNA1), or BJAB cells were used to perform immunofluorescence confocal microscopy. PAX5-stained cells were visualized by a rhodamine-conjugated secondary antibody, whereas the primary EBNA1 antibody was fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) conjugated. The nuclei were counterstained with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI).
