Background

Activating transcription factor 3 (ATF-3) is a basic leucine zipper-type transcription factor belonging to the ATF/cAMP responsive element binding protein family. ATF-3 can form homodimers or heterodimers with other family members and depending on the cell types and promoter context, it can suppress or activate the transcription of its target genes (1,2). Expression of ATF-3 is induced by a variety of factors including cytokines, genotoxic agents, and physiological stress. For example, both metformin and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) can induce ATF-3 expression in macrophages (1,3-5). Research studies also indicate that ATF-3 can function as an oncogene or a tumor suppressor depending on the context (6,7).

Chromatin immunoprecipitations were performed with cross-linked chromatin from HCT 116 cells and either ATF-3 (E9J4N) Rabbit mAb or Normal Rabbit IgG #2729

using Simple ChIP® Plus Enzymatic Chromatin IP Kit (Magnetic Beads) #9005. The enriched DNA was quantified by real-time PCR using SimpleChIP® Human ATF-3 Exon 1 Primers #66427, human RUNX2 Intron 5, and SimpleChIP® Human α Satellite Primers #4486. The amount of immunoprecipitated DNA in each sample is represented as signal relative to the total amount of input chromatin, which is equivalent to one.
