Background

The E2F family consists of 8 transcription factors that regulate genes that control cell cycle progression by complexing with DP and Rb proteins (1-4). E2F transcriptional activation is generally opposed by associating with RB proteins, pRB, p107, and p130 (5-7). E2F-1, -2, and -3a function as activators that can help quiescent cells enter S phase, while E2F-3b, -4, and -5 repress cell growth through the recruitment of HDAC’s and other corepressors to target genes (8-10). E2F-6 diverges considerably from other family members, and has repressive properties governed not through interaction with Rb proteins, but by recruiting the polycomb repressive complex (11,12). E2F-7, and -8 are unique in that they have two DNA-binding domains and do not heterodimerize with DP proteins. These E2F family members repress transcription and delay progression of the cell cycle through the regulation of E2F-1 (13-15)

E2F4 (E3G2G) Rabbit mAb

Western Blotting Image 1: E2F4 (E3G2G) Rabbit mAb Expand Image
Western blot analysis of extracts from various cell lines using E2F4 (E3G2G) Rabbit mAb
Immunoprecipitation Image 1: E2F4 (E3G2G) Rabbit mAb Expand Image
Immunoprecipitation of E2F4 from HT-1080 cell extracts. Lane 1 is 10% input, lane 2 is Rabbit (DA1E) mAb IgG XP® Isotype Control #3900, and lane 3 is E2F4 (E3G2G) Rabbit mAb. Western blot analysis was performed with E2F4 (E3G2G) Rabbit mAb. Mouse Anti-rabbit IgG (Conformation Specific) (L27A9) mAb (HRP Conjugate) #5127 was used as a secondary antibody.
Chromatin Immunoprecipitation Image 1: E2F4 (E3G2G) Rabbit mAb Expand Image
Chromatin immunoprecipitations were performed with cross-linked chromatin from Raji cells and either E2F4 (E3G2G) Rabbit mAb or Normal Rabbit IgG #2729 using SimpleChIP® Plus Enzymatic Chromatin IP Kit (Magnetic Beads) #9005. The enriched DNA was quantified by real-time PCR using SimpleChIP® Human Timeless Intron 1 Primers #7001, SimpleChIP® Human DHFR Intron 1 Primers #7531 and SimpleChIP® Human α Satellite Repeat 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.
