Figure Lengend Snippet: MYBL2 ( left panel) and PITX2 ( right panel) interact with the endogenous ADGB promoter via direct binding. ( A ) Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) experiments in HEK293T cells transiently transfected with MYBL2 or FLAG-PITX2. Coprecipitated chromatin derived from the ADGB promoter was determined by qPCR using a primer pair covering +21 bp to −184 bp upstream of the ADGB TSS. Control regions were targeted upstream (5′ end, ADGB 5′) and downstream (3′ end, ADGB 3′) of ADGB on chromosome 6 and two independent AURKA loci (as positive and negative control). Due to the high differences in intensity, statistics for both loci were conducted separately. ( B ) Relative mRNA expression of endogenous ADGB following transient overexpression of MYBL2 or PITX2 compared to empty vector in A375 cells or HEK293T cells. ( C ) Overexpression of MYBL2 ( left panel) and PITX2 ( right panel) was verified by immunoblotting using specific antibodies against MYBL2 and PITX2. Data are represented as means ± S.E.M; * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01).
