TRIB1 and HNF4A form a complex. (A), Constructs coding for myc-tagged BirA alone or inserted N terminal of TRIB1 were co-transfected with HNF4A expression plasmids in HEK293T for 24 h. Following an additional 24 h growth in media supplemented with 0.1 mM biotin, cells were harvested and lysed under denaturing conditions. Biotinylated targets were then isolated using streptavidin beads and analyzed by Western blotting using cognate antibodies followed by streptavidin coupled to IRDye800CW. (B), Plasmids encoding either HNF4A or HNF1A were transfected alongside FLAG-tagged TRIB1 plasmids in HEK293T cells. Potential complexes were isolated with FLAG-specific immunobeads and analyzed by Western blotting. (C), Interaction is independent of DNA binding. Ethidium bromide (0.2 mg/ml) was included during the immunoprecipitation. Samples were analyzed by Western blotting using the indicated antibodies.
