Figure Legend
"Figure 6. PICH plays both catalytic and protein recruitment function in UFB resolution. ( A ) RPE1 PICH-AG cells expressing GFP-PICH constructs were treated with Dox and IAA for 72 h. Cell extracts were analyzed by western blotting with the indicated antibodies. ( B ) Clonogenic cell survival assays were carried out on RPE1 PICH-AG cells expressing different GFP-PICH constructs treated with Dox and IAA. ( C ) RPE1 PICH-AG expressing GFP-PICH WT or GFP-PICH K128A were treated with Dox and IAA for 24 h. GFP, histone H3 pS10 and DNA were visualized using anti-GFP (green), anti-histone H3 pS10 (red) antibodies and DAPI (blue), respectively. ( D ) Quantification of the number of PICH-coated UFBs and chromatin bridges per cells (90 cells per condition) as visualized in panel (C). ( E ) RPE1 PICH-AG expressing GFP-PICH WT , GFP-PICH K128A or GFP- PICH Δ791–1000 were treated with Dox and IAA for 24 h. Cells were then treated with ICRF-193 (25 nM, 2 h) before fixed. GFP, RPA2 and DNA were visualized using anti-GFP (green), anti-RPA2 (red) antibodies and DAPI (blue), respectively. Scale bars, 10 μm. ( F ) Quantification of the number of PICH-coated and RPA2-coated UFBs per cells (90 cells per condition) as visualized in panel (E). ( G ) HeLa TOP3A-GFP cells were transfected with the indicated siRNAs for 48 h. Cell extracts were analyzed by western blotting with the indicated antibodies. ( H ) Cells in panel (G) were treated with ICRF-193 (50 nM) for 2 h. GFP, PICH and DNA were visualized using anti-GFP (green), anti-PICH (red) antibodies and DAPI (blue), respectively. ( I ) Quantification of the number of PICH-coated and TOP3A-coated UFBs per cells (>50 cells per condition) as visualized in panel (H). In all quantified data, bars represent the mean ± SD of n = 3 independent experiments. ** P < 0.01; **** P < 0.0001; ns (not significant) P > 0.05; statistical significance values were determined with unpaired two-tailed t -tests.
