doi: 10.1126/sciadv.ado7660
Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Immunofluorescence detection of YTHDF1 using anti-YTHDF1 in HEK293T cells with or without x-ray treatment (a dose of 4 Gy). Nuclei were counterstained with Hoechst (blue). Scale bars, 10 μm. CTL, control. DAPI, 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole. ( B ) Immunoblotting analysis of total, cytosolic (Cyto), and nuclear (Nuc) fractions of HEK293T cells with or without x-ray treatment (a dose of 4 Gy). ( C ) Immunoblotting analysis confirming the efficiency of ATR and ATM inhibitors (ATRi and ATMi). HEK293T cells treated with KU60019 (10 μM) or VE-821 (10 μM) for 24 hours and x-ray were subjected to immunoblotting analysis. ( D ) Immunoblotting analysis confirming the efficiency of DNA-PKcs inhibitor (DNA-PKcsi). HEK293T cells treated with NU7441 (2 μM) for 24 hours and x-ray were subjected to immunoblotting analysis. ( E ) Subcellular localization of FLAG-tagged YTHDF1 under the same conditions as (C) and (D). Lentiviral transduction was used for the expression of YTHDF1-FLAG. ( F ) Validation of ATR knockdown efficiency by immunoblotting in HEK293T cells. ( G ) Intracellular localization of YTHDF1 in control and ATR knockdown cells with x-ray treatment (a dose of 4 Gy). ( H ) Coimmunoprecipitation experiment confirming the interaction between ATR and YTHDF1. Lysates from HEK293T cells with or without x-ray treatment (a dose of 4 Gy) were immunoprecipitated with immunoglobulin G (IgG) or anti-ATR and then immunoblotted with anti-YTHDF1 antibody. IP, immunoprecipitation. ( I ) Intracellular localization of alanine mutants of YTHDF1 in HEK293T cells. A dose of 4-Gy x-ray irradiation was applied. ( J ) In vitro kinase assay using antibody-affinity–isolated ATR complex with purified YTHDF1 or YTHDF1-S182A. The phosphorylation was detected using a p-serine antibody (top). YTHDF1 and ATR were detected by Western blot (middle) and Coomassie blue staining (bottom). GFP, green fluorescent protein.
