HP1γ knockdown increases expression of TNF and abolishes H3.3S31 phosphorylation. (A) HP1γ, TNF and IKKα mRNA levels in RAW264.7 cells after HP1γ knockdown using three shRNAs against HP1γ (sh-1, -2 and -3) or firefly luciferase (sh-c) after 1 h LPS treatment. Results are expressed relative to GAPDH expression. Error bars represent standard deviation (SD) from three independent experiments. (B) Quantification of total HP1γ and β-actin protein levels by western blot with total cell extract, after HP1γ knockdown (sh-1) in RAW264.7 cells. (C,E) ChIP performed, after HP1γ knockdown in RAW264.7 cells treated with LPS for 1 h, with (C) anti-RNAPII S2p and (E) anti-H3.3S31p antibodies. Horizontal axis indicates primers used for the real-time PCR. Data are normalized versus input or (E) total histone H3 and then versus an average of background control regions. (D) qPCR quantification of MNase-treated chromatin. (C–E) Data are representative of at least three independent experiments. Error bars represent SD from three independent qPCR replicates.
