- Gal4-EED/luc cells IFC - stain with anti-luc overnight
- PcTF transfection of U2OS
Gal4-EED/luc cells IFC
- Samples: first row of wells in the 24-well plate.
- Keep all others under PBS
- 0 μg/mL dox

- Use 1:200 dilution of rabbit (poly) anti-luc (in 15 μL Gentex horse serum blocking solution per well)
- Incubate under parafilm "covers" overnight at 4°C in box with wet paper towels
Lipo transfection
> Cells were 100% confluent
> Re-plate 1:2 dilution prior to transfection in 3.4 mL p/s-free medium
> Transfect human PcTF under control of constitutive CMV promoter (KAH160/MV1); 346.6 ng/μL
> Samples are for RT-PCR
