SMAR1 controls type 17 helper T cell (Th17) differentiation. (a) Gel shift assay on 350 bp of interleukin-17 (IL-17) matrix attachment region (MAR) using increasing concentrations of purified SMAR1 protein. Naive T cells were isolated and differentiated under Th17 condition for various time points (1, 3, 5, and 7 days). Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) experiments were done on the MAR region of IL-17 gene with antibodies against (b) SMAR1, (c) RNA Pol II, (d) HDAC1, (e) H3K4(me)3, and (f) acetyl-H3K9. ChIP assay with the naive (Th0) and Th2 differentiated cells to show the relative enrichment of (g) SMAR1, (h) HDAC1, and (i) H3KAc. Relative enrichment was calculated by subtracting the Ct value with the control IgGs in the real-time PCR assays.
