Cal-1 cells (Human plasmacytoid dendritic cell line) were cross-linked with 1% formaldehyde for 5 min at RT. Cross-linked cells were first washed with ice-cold PBS and then resuspended in ice-cold RIPA buffer (10mM Tris-HCl pH8, 140 mM NaCl, 1mM EDTA pH 8, 0.5 mM EGTA, 1% Triton X-100, 0.1% SDS and 0.1% Sodium Deoxycholate) to a final concentration of 5x106 cells/ml. DNA was sheared with a Misonix XL sonicator, by performing 12 x 45’’ sonication cycles at power setting of 5. For each ChIP reaction, 2x107 chromatin cell equivalents were incubated overnight with10 μg of ab217668. The following day, chromatin/antibody complexes were incubated with 50 μl of Protein G/Protein A magnetic beads mix (G to A ratio 3:1) for 4 h at 4°C. Normal rabbit IgG was added to the beads as control.
The TCF-4 locus ChIP-seq tracks for BRD4 (blue), RNA Pol2 (red), and TCF-4 (green) are shown for Cal-1 cells. This data was kindly provided by our collaborator Dr. Louis M. Staudt, and has been published (PMID: 27846392).
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab217668).

Flow cytometric analysis of 1% paraformaldehyde-fixed, ice-cold methanol permeabilized Cal-1 cells (Human plasmacytoid dendritic cell line) (black - positive control) and Cal-1 cells infected with either Ctrl (left green) or TCF4 (right green) shRNA, labeling TCF4 with ab217668 at 1/100 dilution (green and black) compared with a Rabbit IgG control (grey). Goat anti-Rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 647) at 1/500 dilution was used as the secondary antibody.
The data was provided by our collaborator Dr. Louis M. Staudt, and published in Cancer Cell 30, 764-778, 2016 (PMID: 27846392). Several TCF4 shRNAs were used. This FC image shows data for shRNA TCF4 #1.
