C151 in KEAP1 is the primary sensor for MCE-23 and MCE-1 in MEF cells. Western blot analyses of total cell lysates of KEAP1-knockout MEF cells rescued with either wild-type (WT), single cysteine mutant C151S, double cysteine mutant C273W/C288E or triple cysteine mutant C151S/C273W/C288E of mouse N-terminally tagged HA- KEAP1. Cells (3 × 105 per well), growing in 6-well plates, were exposed to vehicle (0.1% DMSO) (A,B), MCE-23 (A) or MCE-1 (B) for 3 h, after which the cells were lysed. Immunoblotting was performed on cell lysates using antibodies raised against NRF2, HA and α-tubulin.
