Fig. 4: KLF12 reduces the stability of p53.

From: KLF12 promotes the proliferation of breast cancer cells by reducing the transcription of p21 in a p53-dependent and p53-independent manner

Fig. 4

a Western blot assay showed changes of exogenous p53 in HEK293T cells transfected with increasing doses of KLF12. b Changes in endogenous p53 and p21 in MCF7 cells transfected with increasing doses of KLF12 by Western blot assay. c Changes in the endogenous level of p53 and p21 in ZR-75-30 cells transfected with NC, shKLF12#1, or shKLF12#2 by Western blot assay. d Changes in exogenous p53 in HEK293T cells transfected with GFP-KLF12 without and with 20 μg/ml MG132 treatment by Western blot assay. e, f The half-life of p53 in MCF-7 cells with overexpressed KLF12 treated with CHX (50 μg/ml) by Western blot assay. g CoIP assay showed changes in the level of ubiquitinated p53 in HEK293T cells transfected with Flag-KLF12 plus 4 h treatment with 20 μg/ml MG132. h CoIP assay detected changes in K48-linked polyubiquitylation of p53 and K63-linked polyubiquitylation of p53 in HEK293T cells. The cells were treated with MG132 for 4 h following transfection.
