Characterization
Description(s):Transcriptional co-regulators interact specifically and non-covalently with one or multiple DNA-binding transcription factors (TFs) to either activate or repress the transcription of specific genes. Dysregulated expression of coregulator, such as SRC-1/NcoA-1, p300, CBP and HADC, has a significant effect on the regulation of a TF in the recruitment of other transcription factors and chromatin remodeling. For example, the upregulation of SRC-1 has known roles in mediating steroid receptor transcription in androgen receptor activity as well as prostate cancer progression.
Signosis has developed TF-Coregulator Interaction Plate Array Assay II allowing for high throughput studying of co-regulator interaction networks with 96 different TFs.

Principle
Signosis’ TF-Coregulator Interaction Plate Array can simultaneously profile the transcriptional interaction of multiple TFs with a co-regulator of interest. In this assay, a series of unique biotin-labeled probes are provided that correspond with the consensus sequences of individual TF DNA-binding sites. Therefore, each probe represents an individual TF. When the probe mix is incubated with nuclear extract, individual probes bind to their corresponding TF. The co-regulator of interest is then immunoprecipitated, along with transcriptionally interacting TFs, using a corresponding antibody and protein G or A agarose beads in a tube. Unbound probes and proteins are washed away. The bound probes are then detached from the complex and are subsequently denatured. The biotin-labeled DNA strands are hybridized on a pre-coat plate and detected with streptavidin-HRP and substrate. The detected signals reflect the interacting TFs with the particular co-regulator of interest. Luminescence is reported as relative light units (RLUs) on a microplate luminometer.
