In vivo, SUG-1 is co-recruited with SRC-3 to the promoter of
RARα target genes. A, schematic representation of
the promoter regions of the Cyp26A1 gene with the primer pairs used
for their amplification. B and C, kinetic ChIP experiments
performed with RA-treated MCF7 cells and determining the recruitment of
RARα, SRC-3, and SUG-1 to the R1 and R2 regions. Values are expressed as
-fold enrichment relative to untreated cells and correspond to a
representative experiment among 3. D and E, Re-ChIP
experiments performed with the indicated antibodies, showing that, at 60 min
following RA addition, DNA-bound SRC-3 and RARα are associated with
SUG-1. Values are expressed as -fold enrichment relative to control Re-ChIP
experiments and are the mean ± S.D. of triplicate experiments.
F, ChIP-Western experiments performed with MCF7 cells treated or not
with RA for 60 min. The complexes immunoprecipitated with SRC-3 antibodies
were analyzed by immunoblotting as indicated. Lane 1 corresponds to
aliquots (10%) of unprecipitated extracts. G, kinetic ChIP
experiments determining the recruitment of RARα, SRC-3, and SUG-1 to the
RARβ2 promoter as in A. The promoter with the
DR5 RARE is also shown.
