Influence of the AIRE–PHD1 mutations on transcriptional activation and chromatin binding. (A) Relative expression levels of insulin (INS), involucrin (INV) and S100A8 genes in HEK-AIRE (AIRE), HEK-AIRE-D297A (D297A) and HEK-AIRE-D312A (D312A) mutant and HEK-control (YFP) cell lines are shown in comparison with the messenger RNA levels in HEK-AIRE cell lines (=100%). (B) DNA ChIP analysis with anti-AIRE and IgG was performed from the stably transfected cells, as indicated. The fold differences are normalized to input fractions and shown in comparison with the background level (=1) with each primer set in each condition. The data are the averages of two independent experiments. AIRE, autoimmune regulator; ChIP, chromatin immunoprecipitation; HEK, human embryonic kidney; PHD, plant homeodomain.
