a Affinity purification mass spectrometry (AP-MS) strategies for identification of OCT4-associated proteins (interactome) in hESCs. Three strategies are used: (i) streptavidin immunoprecipitation (SA-IP) of WIBR2-OCT43xFLBio ESCs or BirA control; (ii) FLAG-IP of WIBR2-OCT43xFLBio ESCs or BirA control; (iii) native OCT4 and IgG antibody (Ab-IP) pulldown in WIBR2 and WIBR3 hESC lines. b OCT4-associated proteins identified in naïve and primed hESCs. Proteins are listed as official gene symbols. c Proteins in the naïve human OCT4 interactome are compared to OCT4-associated proteins identified in three independent studies in mouse ESCs2931. Components of SNF2-family chromatin remodeling complexes are underlined. d OCT4 co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP) followed by western blot of selected OCT4-associated proteins in naïve and primed hESCs. e BRM (SMARCA2) and BRG1 (SMARCA4) co-IP followed by western blot analysis of BAF155 (SMARCC1) and OCT4. d, e Experiment is repeated independently twice with similar results.
