Mobility shift assays were performed with synthetic oligonucleotides (as shown in Figure 1A ) and purified HaCaT nuclear extract and in vitro translated recombinant IRF-1 and IRF-2 proteins and derived from 10 mucosal HPV promoters that matched a 13 nt IRF consensus motif (IRE).
Dissociation constants for keratinocyte extracts were determined from an average of two to four experiments as measured by scanning densitometry.
Dissociation constants for rIRF-1 were determined from an average of two to four experiments as measured by scanning densitometry.
Dissociation constants for rIRF-2 were determined from an average of two to four experiments as measured by scanning densitometry.
