Kaiso binds to the promoters of BCL2, BAX, and BIK. DNA fragments (200–500 bp) were obtained from nuclear lysates of HUVECs (A) and HMEC-1s (B), respectively, and were subjected to chromatin immunoprecipitation. Mouse monoclonal anti-Kaiso 6F/6F8-CHIP grade antibody was used for Kaiso/DNA complex precipitation and the precipitated DNA fragments were amplified using primers targeting promoter regions of BCL2 (−3902 to −1 bp) (A,a and B,a), BAX (−971 to −1 bp) (A,b and B,b) and BIK (−3000 to −1 bp) (A,c and B,c). Primer positions (horizontal arrows) are shown in the schematic drawings in the upper panel in A and B. Asterisks mark the positively amplified promoter regions. Normal mouse IgG was used as a negative control. M: DNA marker. (A) In HUVECs, Kaiso binds to the promoter regions −1201 to −1 bp of BCL2, −645 to −316 bp of BAX and −1201 to −1 bp of BIK (Asterisks). (B) In HMEC-1s, Kaiso binds to the promoter regions −301 to −1 bp of BCL2, −645 to −316 bp of BAX and −601 to −1 bp of BIK (Asterisks). Detailed primer positions and sequences were listed in Supplementary Table S2.
