a, b. Co-localization between the IAP RNA and (a) RNAPII puncta and (b) MED23 puncta in TRIM28-degraded mESCs. Displayed are separate images of the RNA-FISH and IF signal, and an image of the merged channels. The nuclear periphery determined by DAPI staining is highlighted as a white contour. The zoom column displays the region of the images highlighted in a yellow box zoomed in for greater detail. After 24 h dTAG-13 treatment, small nuclear puncta appear, and after 48 h of dTAG-13 treatment, large nuclear foci are visible. Scale bars: 2.5 μm. c. Scheme of the 1-6 hexanediol (1-6 HD) treatment experiments. d. Representative images of RNAPII immunofluorescence in control and 1-6 HD-treated cells. 1-6 HD partially dissolved the punctate localization of RNAPII. Scale bars: 5 μm. e. Transcription of the nascent Cthcr1 RNA is reduced by 30 min 1% 1-6 hexanediol-treatment in TRIM28-degraded cells. The bar plots show qRT-PCR data as fold change normalized to the DMSO control across 6 and 3 biological replicates for 24 h and 48 h timepoints, respectively. Note that the IAP RNA does not contain introns; thus, the IAP RNA qRT-PCR detects the steady state pool of IAP RNAs. Each dot represents a data point, and bar indicates the mean. P values are from two-tailed t tests. NS: not significant.
