Figure Lengend Snippet: HDAC5 regulates LSD1 by altering USP28 stability. (a) MDA-MB-231 cells transfected with pcDNA3.1-FLAG, pcDNA3.1-FLAG-HDAC5 or pcDNA3-HA-ubiquitin plasmids were treated with or without proteasome inhibitor 10µM MG132 for 10 h followed by immunoprecipitation (IP) using LSD1 antibody and immunoblots with anti-HA, LSD1 or HDAC5 antibodies. (b) Effect of siRNA of Jade-2, USP28 and HDAC5 on LSD1 protein expression in MDA-MB-231 cells. Results represent the mean of three independent experiments ± s.d. *** p <0.001, Student’s t-test. (c) MDA-MB-231 cells were transfected with scramble siRNA, HDAC5-siRNA, control vector pcDNA3.1, or pcDNA3.1-HDAC5 plasmids for 48 h. mRNA expression of Jade-2 and USP28 was measured by quantitative PCR. β-actin was used as an internal control. (d) MDA-MB-231 or MCF10A–CA1a cells were simultaneously transfected with pcDNA3.1-FLAG-Jade-2 and HDAC5 siRNA for 48 h and subjected to immunoblots with anti-HDAC5 or Jade-2 antibodies. β-actin was used as loading control to normalize target protein levels. (e) After MDA-MB-231 or MCF10A–CA1a cells were transfected with control vector pcDNA3.1 or pcDNA3.1-HDAC5 plasmids for 48 h, immunoblotting was performed for expression of HDAC5 and USP28. (f) MDA-MB-231 or MCF10A–CA1a cells were transfected with scramble or HDAC5 siRNA alone, or in combination with pDZ-USP28 for 48 h. Whole cell lysates were analyzed for protein levels of HDAC5, USP28 and LSD1. β-actin was used as loading control to normalize target protein levels. The experiments were performed three times with similar results.
Article Snippet: 0.25 µg of recombinant human GST-tagged HDAC5 protein (Creative BioMart, NY, NY) was mixed with 30 µl immunoprecipitates or 1.5 µg bulk histone at 37°C for 6h in a buffer containing 40 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 2.5 mM MgCl2, 50 mM NaCl, 2 mM KCl, 0.5mM DTT, 1mM EDTA and protease inhibitor.
