  • ✓ Transfections: H3K27me3 reporters into cell lines BD002 (KAH201+KAH182+V0200)
  • ✓ Polycomb-ATF negative control lines: colony plates



Transfections
> U2OS Flp-in T-REx lines (puro/zeo/blast) + FRT-marked mammalian transfection vector (hygro)
--> Note: co-transfect with FlpE (1:3); hygro resistance replaces zeo resistance after "Flp" in
> Use Lipofectamine, 6-well format
> Plates:

  1. BD002 (3:1) Flp-in T-REx
  2. BD002 (4:1) Flp-in T-REx

BD002 (3:1) = 339 ng/μl BD002 (4:1) = 317 ng/μl PlpE = 192 ng/μl

Plate-Well Plasmid DNA Volume dH2O Lipo PLUS reagent Opti-MEM (total)

  1. Prepare DNA-Lipofectamine complexes (600 μl per sample) as follows:
    1. Label sterile microfuge (1.5 ml) tubes.
    2. Add 570 μL Opti-MEM to each 20 μL DNA sample.
    3. Add 2.5 μL PLUS reagent to each DNA+Opti-MEM sample. Incubate for 5 minutes at room temperature.
    4. Add 7.5 μL Lipofectamine LTX to each DNA+Opti-MEM+PLUS reagent sample. Incubate for 30 minutes at room temperature.
  2. Add the total 600 μL of DNA+Opti-MEM+PLUS reagent+Lipofectamine mixture drop-wise to each appropriate well of cells.
  3. Incubate cells at 37°C in a CO2 incubator
  4. (Optional) To reduce toxicity, after 5-6 hours wash cells once with warm 1xPBS to remove excess DNA-Lipo complexes. Add fresh antibiotic-free growth medium.

Transgene expression should be detectable after 18 hours.



Polycomb-ATF negative control lines: colony plates
> For each line make 2 plates: ~1x105 and 5x104 cells
> 25 ml 1 μg/mL puro, 15 μg/mL blast, 200 μg/mL zeo
> Also make 6-well back-up plate for all transfections (~3x105 cells in selection medium)
