Figure 4. Acetylation of WRN increases its exonuclease activity in vivo.

Figure 4

(A) The top panel shows a WB of 293T cell extract transfected with or without p300 plasmid analyzed using an anti-acetyl lysine antibody; bottom panel shows the same membrane stripped and analyzed with an anti-WRN antibody. These cell extracts were used in the measurement of WRN exonuclease activities (B). (B) Lysates from 293T cells with (lane 3) or without (lanes 1 and 2) transfection with p300 expression plasmid were immunoprecipitated with antibodies against immunoglobulin G (IgG) (lane 1) or WRN (lanes 2 and 3). The washed immunocomplexes were incubated with the exonuclease substrate (top, 0.5 nM, final concentration) as described.
