Identification of zinc fingers (ZFs) mediating ZFP423 interaction with EBF2. (A) Schematic representation of 30 zinc finger (ZF) motifs within murine ZFP423. The previously identified EBF family interaction domain is highlighted in blue. ZFs 28–30 were individually mutated through histidine-to-asparagine substitutions at the indicated histidine residues. (B) Western blot analysis of the indicated proteins in whole-cell lysates (top) and ZFP423 immunoprecipitates (bottom) from differentiated immortalized brown stromal vascular cells following sequential transduction with retrovirus carrying Ebf2 and then retrovirus expressing FLAG-tagged (FL) ZFP423 variants. (C) Relative mRNA levels of thermogenic genes (top) and common adipocyte-selective genes (bottom) in cultures of in vitro differentiated immortalized brown stromal vascular cells expressing the indicated ZFP423 variants. Bars represent mean + SEM. (*) P < 0.05 by one-way ANOVA. n = 3 biological replicates.
