<p>(A) UbcH5a enhances TdT ubiquitylation in 293 T cells. 293 T cells were transfected with plasmids encoding His-Ub (lanes 1, 3 to 5), Myc-TdT (lanes 2 to 5), and/or Flag-UbcH5a (lanes 1, 2, 4 and 5) in the indicated combinations. After a 24 h incubation, the cells were treated with 10 µM MG132 for another 12 h, lysed under denaturing conditions, and the ubiquitylated proteins were affinity-purified and separated by SDS-PAGE. Ubiquitylated Myc-TdT was detected by immunoblotting with an anti-Myc antibody. Myc-TdT and Flag-UbcH5a in the lysate were detected using an anti-Myc or anti-Flag antibody. (B) UbcH6 enhances TdT ubiquitylation in 293 T cells. 293 T cells were transfected with plasmids encoding His-Ub (lanes 1, 3 to 5), Flag-TdT (lanes 2 to 5), and/or Myc-UbcH6 (lanes 1, 2, 4 and 5) in the indicated combinations. After incubation for 24 h, the cells were treated with 10 µM MG132 for another 12 h. The cells were lysed under denaturing conditions, and the ubiquitylated proteins were affinity-purified and separated by SDS-PAGE. Ubiquitylated TdT was detected by immunoblotting using an anti-Flag antibody. Flag-TdT and Myc-UbcH6 in the lysate were detected using an anti-Flag or anti-Myc antibody. (C) UbcH7 does not enhance TdT ubiquitylation in 293 T cells. 293 T cells were transfected with plasmids encoding His-Ub (lanes 1, 3 to 5), Flag-TdT (lanes 2 to 5), and/or Myc-UbcH7 (lanes 1, 2, 4 and 5) in the indicated combinations. After a 24 h incubation, the cells were treated with 10 µM MG132 for another 12 h, lysed under denaturing conditions, and the ubiquitylated proteins were affinity-purified and separated by SDS-PAGE. Ubiquitylated TdT was detected by immunoblotting using an anti-Flag antibody. Flag-TdT and Myc-UbcH7 in the lysate were detected using an anti-Flag or anti-Myc antibody.</p
