Caption
No more lot 14562 was available to characterize it in MCF-7 and A549 cell lines. Instead, we characterized a different lot of the same antibody in those cell lines as well as in K562 to use for comparison purposes to demonstrate that the lots behave similarly.
Submitter comment
We would like an exemption for this lot under a variation of Guideline b listed on page 4 of the May 2016 TF Antibody Standards document.
Reviewer comment
An exemption was granted by the ENCODE Antibody Review Panel on July 27, 2017

Calculations were done by Pouya Kheradpour using a collection of known motifs (9 motifs were considered) available at http://www.broadinstitute.org/%7Epouyak/motif-disc/human/. Table 1 shows the fold-enrichments, enrichment p-values and fraction of peaks which contain the motif. The motif which produced the largest value for each criterion is shown in Table 1. Note that while the maximally enriched motif differs from the motif with the highest enrichment p-values and the most represented motif, the motifs are highly similar (Figure 1) and thus all values are similar between motifs. Motifs were identified using a matching stringency corresponding to 4-6 (6-mer). Peaks identified by IDR (1% cutoff) were used in the analysis and +/-50bp from peak centers were considered. Enrichments are for a given motif vs. a background consisting of +/- 50bp from the centers of all DnaseI hypersensitive peaks. Repeat mask/simple repeats from UCSC and all gencode v7 exons (including non-protein coding genes) were excluded from the analysis. Comparison to shuffle motifs were used to correct for compositional bias. Enrichment is the corrected # of motifs in ChIP peaks/corrected # of motifs in DNaseI peaks. The current ENCODE standard calls for >4-fold enrichment and >10% motif representation for this criteria to be used for validation. As shown in Table 1, the ENCODE datasets for RFX5 in GM12878, H1 hES, and HepG2 cells exceed these thresholds and the antibody is considered validated.

Panel A demonstrates that a major band of ~65kD is observed in all cell lines tested. A band at ~35kD is also observed in HepG2 cells- we are unsure of the identity of this band but it may be a degradation product. Panel B demonstrates that this band is efficiently immunoprecipitated from HeLa nuclear extracts. Based on these observations, this antibody meets this ENCODE criterion.

Panel B demonstrates that this band is efficiently immunoprecipitated from HeLa nuclear extracts. Based on these observations, this antibody meets this ENCODE criterion. Arrow indicates immunoprecipitated (IP) band of expected size fro HeLa-S3 nuclear lysates. Lane 1 = HeLa-S3 nuclear lysate. Lane 2 = bound material from HeLa-S3 IP with 200-401-194. Lane 3 = bound material from control IgG IP from HeLa-S3. IPs were performed with ExactaCruz reagent (Santa Cruz Biotechnology), so the intensities of IgG bands (indicated by *), particularly the heavy chain at 55 kD, are diminished.

Immunoprecipitation was performed on nuclear extracts from the cell line K562 using the antibody 200-401-194. Lane 1: input nuclear lysate. Lane 2: material immunoprecipitated with antibody. Lane 3: material immunoprecipitated using control IgG. Marked bands were excised from gel and subjected to analysis by mass spectrometry. Target molecular weight: 65.3.

IP followed by mass spectrometry. Briefly, protein was immunoprecipitated from K562 nuclear cell lysates using the antibody 200-401-194, and the IP fraction was loaded on a 10% polyacrylamide gel (NuPAGEBis-Tris Gel) and separated with an Invitrogen NuPAGE electrophoresis system. The gel was stained by ColloidialCoomassie G-250 stain, gel fragments corresponding to the bands indicated were excised. Then proteins were trypsinized using the in-gel digestion method. Digested proteins were analyzed on an Orbitrap Elite mass spectrometer (Thermo Scientific) by the nanoLC-ESI-MS/MS technique. Peptides were identified by the SEQUEST algorithm and filtered with a high confidence threshold (Peptide false discovery rate < 1%, 2 unique peptides per protein minimum, mass error < 10 ppm).

A band at ~35kD is also observed in HepG2 cells- we are unsure of the identity of this band but it may be a degradation product. Arrow indicates band detected by Rockland antibody 200-401-194 consistent with expected size (65kD) of RFX5 in nuclear lysates from (left to right): K562, GM12878, HeLa-S3, and HepG2 cell lines.
Reviewer comment
Lane 4 not compliant because band is not 50% of total signal
