Figure 4. Association of CARMA1 and BCL10.

Figure 4

(A) Co-IP analysis of interactions between BCL10-CARD and variants of CARMA1-CARD. HEK293T cells were transiently co-transfected with GFP-tagged BCL10-CARD and wild type or mutants of Myc-tagged CARMA1-CARD constructs. Cell extracts were immunoprecipitated using an anti-Myc antibody and blotted using anti-GFP. (B) Co-IP analysis of interactions between Myc-tagged CARMA1-CARD and wild type or mutants of GFP-tagged BCL10-CARD constructs. (C,D) Bar graph displaying interactions between CARMA1-CARD and BCL10-CARD. (E) The effect of wild type and mutants of CARMA1 on the NF-κB reporter assay. (F) The effect of wild type and mutants of BCL10 on NF-κB activity. RLU: relative luciferase unit; Luc: firefly luciferase activity; and Ren: Renilla luciferase activity. The error bars indicate the standard error of the mean (n = 3 separate experiments). * indicates a P value<0.05, ** indicates a P value<0.001. (G, H) The expression levels of CARMA1 and BCL10 in NF-κB assays were checked by immunoblotting with anti-GFP, anti-MYC and anti-GAPDH antibodys, respectively.
