Western blot - Human CBX4 knockout HEK-293 cell line (AB261723)
False colour image of Western blot : Anti-CBX4 antibody [EPR23053-7] - ChIP Grade staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-Alpha Tubulin [DM1A] (ab7291) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab242149 was shown to bind specifically to CBX4. A band was observed at 75 kDa in wild-type HEK-293 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in Cbx4 knockout cell line ab261723 (knockout cell lysate ab261666). The band observed in the knockout lysate lane below 75 kDa is likely to represent a truncated form of CBX4. This has not been investigated further and the functional properties of the gene product have not been determined. To generate this image, wild-type and Cbx4 knockout HEK-293 cell lysates were analysed.First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3% milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776) at 1/20000 dilution.

Handling procedures
Initial handling guidelines
Upon arrival, the vial should be stored in liquid nitrogen vapor phase and not at -80°C. Storage at -80°C may result in loss of viability.
1. Thaw the vial in 37°C water bath for approximately 1-2 minutes.
2. Transfer the cell suspension (0.8 mL) to a 15 mL/50 mL conical sterile polypropylene centrifuge tube containing 8.4 mL pre-warmed culture medium, wash vial with an additional 0.8 mL culture medium (total volume 10 mL) to collect remaining cells, and centrifuge at 201 x g (rcf) for 5 minutes at room temperature. 10 mL represents minimum recommended dilution. 20 mL represents maximum recommended dilution.
3. Resuspend the cell pellet in 5 mL pre-warmed culture medium and count using a haemocytometer or alternative cell counting method seed all remaining cells into a T25.
4. Incubate the culture at 37°C incubator with 5% CO2. Check the culture one day after revival and continue to check until 80% confluent. Media change can be given if needed.
5. Once confluent passage into an appropriate flask at a density of 2x104 cells/cm2. Seeding density is given as a guide only and should be scaled to align with individual lab schedules. Cultures should be monitored daily.
Subculture guidelines
- All seeding densities should be based on cell counts gained by established methods.
- A guide seeding density of 2x104 cells/cm2 is recommended.
- Cells should be passaged when they have achieved 80-90% confluence.
Culture medium
DMEM (High Glucose) + 10% FBS
Cryopreservation medium
Cell Freezing Medium-DMSO Serum free media, contains 8.7% DMSO in MEM supplemented with methyl cellulose.

Biological function summary
CBX4 operates as a component of the Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1) which plays role in controlling gene expression patterns during development. In this complex CBX4 interacts with other core components such as BMI1 and RING1 to facilitate monoubiquitination of histone H2A leading to transcriptional repression. This ability of CBX4 to modulate epigenetic states highlights its importance in critical developmental processes and differentiation.
Pathways
CBX4 significantly influences gene regulatory networks involved in cell cycle and apoptosis pathways. In the cell cycle regulation CBX4 interacts with important proteins such as Cyclin D1 impacting cell proliferation. In apoptosis CBX4 has roles linked to the p53 pathway by modulating transcriptional activity which influences cellular fate. These pathways underline the significance of CBX4 in maintaining balance between cell growth and death.
