Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Human IRF9 (Interferon regulatory factor 9) knockout HeLa cell line (AB266051)
ab271043 staining Interferon regulatory factor 9 in wild-type HeLa cells and IRF9 knockout HeLa cells treated with interferon-a1 (ab48750) at 10 ng/ml for 16 hours. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) then permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated with ab271043 at 0.4 μg/ml concentration and ab7291 (Mouse monoclonal to alpha Tubulin) at 1/1000 dilution overnight at 4°C followed by a further incubation at room temperature for 1h with a goat secondary antibody to rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150081) at 2 μg/ml (shown in green) and a goat secondary antibody to mouse IgG (Alexa Fluor® 594) (ab150120) at 2 μg/ml (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled in blue with DAPI.
Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems TCS SP8).

Western blot - Human IRF9 (Interferon regulatory factor 9) knockout HeLa cell line (AB266051)
False colour image of Western blot : Anti-Interferon regulatory factor 9/IRF-9 antibody [14HCLC] staining at 2 μg/ml shown in green; Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] (ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution shown in red. In Western blot ab277803 was shown to bind specifically to Interferon regulatory factor 9/IRF-9. A band was observed at 48 kDa in treated wild-type HeLa cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in IRF9 CRISPR-Cas9 edited cell line ab266051 (CRISPR-Cas9 edited cell lysate ab258472). The band observed in the CRISPR-Cas9 edited lysate lane below 48 kDa is likely to represent a truncated form of Interferon regulatory factor 9/IRF-9. 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 IRF9 CRISPR-Cas9 edited HeLa 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 °. 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

Biological function summary
IRF-9 participates in the assembly of the transcription factor complex ISGF3 alongside STAT1 and STAT2. This complex translocates into the nucleus to initiate the transcription of interferon-stimulated genes that promote antiviral states. IRF-9 through this functional role impacts a range of cellular responses including proliferation apoptosis and immune regulation. It affects the temporal and spatial aspects of gene expression in response to interferons.
Pathways
IRF-9 plays a significant role in both the Jak-STAT and interferon signaling pathways. These pathways are essential for the activation of genes involved in immune defense. Through its involvement in these pathways IRF-9 interacts with proteins such as STAT1 and STAT2 creating a bridge between extracellular signals and gene activation. This involvement ensures that cells can respond effectively to viral infections enhancing innate and adaptive immune responses.
