Figure 4. Binding of PRAME to histone H3.

Figure 4

(A) Co-immunoprecipitation of endogenous histones with PRAME-FLAG-6xHis isolated from extracts of transfected HEK293 cells. Input lanes (left panels) show the presence of endogenous or FLAG-tagged proteins in extracts from cells transfected with PRAME-FLAG or empty vector. After IP with anti-FLAG antibody, immunoblots were performed with the antibodies indicated. (B) GST-pulldown experiment showing association of histones with GST or GST-PRAME proteins. Whole cell extracts of HL60 cells were incubated with immobilised GST or GST-PRAME proteins, and bound proteins separated by SDS-PAGE. Immunoblots were performed with specific antibodies to detect association of histones H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 with GST proteins. (C) Direct association of histones with GST or GST-PRAME proteins. Core histone preparations were incubated with GST beads. Following extensive washing, bound histones were separated by SDS-PAGE and revealed by western blotting using specific antibodies as indicated.
