Fig 4. AKTIP interacts with telomeric DNA, TRF1 and TRF2.

Fig 4

(A) ChIPs from HPFs, uninfected HeLa cells and shAKTIP-11-infected HeLa cells reveal interactions between AKTIP and telomeric DNA. Chromatin was immunoprecipitated with an anti-AKTIP antibody or control IgGs; slot-blots were hybridized with TTAGGG or ALU repeat probes. (B) ChIP quantification after normalization to the input (levels shown in A). Bars show the mean values of two experiments ± SD; the amount of telomeric DNA precipitated from uninfected HeLa cells is significantly higher than that obtained from shAKTIP-11-infected cells (*p<0.05 in the Student t test). (C, D) AKTIP-GST pulls down TRF1 (C) and TRF2 (D) from 293T cell extracts. In, input; M, MW markers.
