Cell/tissue-specific gene expression are tightly regulated by various combinations of multiple transcription factors (TFs). Here, we present an oligonucleotide array-based transcription factor assay (OATFA), which allows the simultaneous assay of multiple active TFs. In this proof-of-principle work, both purified TFs and cell extracts were analyzed using OATFA and further antibody-based validation confirmed the chip data. This method could simplify the assay of multiple TFs and may facilitate high-throughput profiling of large numbers of TFs.
细胞/组织特异性基因表达受到多种转录因子(TFs)不同组合的严格调控。在此,我们展示了一种基于寡核苷酸阵列的转录因子检测方法(OATFA),该方法能够同时检测多种活性转录因子。在这项原理验证工作中,使用OATFA对纯化的转录因子和细胞提取物进行了分析,进一步基于抗体的验证证实了芯片数据。该方法可以简化多种转录因子的检测,并可能有助于对大量转录因子进行高通量分析。
