Cell attachment to FN affects p21CIP1 protein stability. (A) Total mRNA isolated from ECV 304 cells previously plated on FN for the indicated times was analyzed for p21CIP1 mRNA levels by Northern blotting. β-Actin mRNA levels were measured as a loading control. (B) ECV 304 cells transiently transfected with HA-tagged p21CIP1 were allowed to attach to FN or suspended upon BSA, and then HA-p21CIP1 levels were analyzed by Western blotting. Actin levels were used as a loading control. (C) ECV 304 cells transfected with HA-p21CIP1 were plated on FN or kept in suspension (BSA), and then the stability of HA-p21CIP1 was detected by pulse-chase analysis with incorporated [35S]methionine. The values shown are the means of two or three independent experiments.
