GATA-1 ChIP of the myb promoter. A) Location of ChIP primers in the myb promoter. B) Comparison of different derivatives of immobilized streptavidin: NeutrAvidin, streptavidin agarose, streptavidin mutein and M280 Dynabeads. Relative enrichment is calculated over non-transfected BirA control cells. C) The effects of preclearing chromatin and using 1% FGEL in blocking the beads. Enrichment was calculated relative to negative primer set. D) The effect of omitting SDS from the sonication buffer. Relative enrichment is calculated over non-transfected BirA control cells.

GATA-1 ChIP of the GATA-2 gene locus. A) Location of the ChIP primers in regulatory elements of the GATA-2 locus. B) GATA-1 binding using streptavidin M280 Dynabeads. C) The effect of blocking M280 Dynabeads with 1% FGEL. Enrichment was calculated relative to non-transfected BirA cells. Primer sequences are as published by Rodriguez et al. (ref. [8]).
