Background of CBX4
PC2 is the human homolog of the Drosophila 'Polycomb' (Pc) protein which has been identified as a gene family member associated with a cellular memory system that is responsible for the inheritance of gene activity by progeny cells. The human Pc homolog gene is more closely related to a Xenopus Pc homolog, XPc, than to a previously described human Pc homolog, CBX2 (hPc1). However, the hPc2 and CBX2/hPc1 proteins are shown to colocalize in interphase nuclei of human U-2 OS osteosarcoma cells, suggesting that the proteins are part of a common protein complex. The human protein is believed to function as a repressor of proto-oncogene activity and that interference with hPc2 function can lead to depression of proto-oncogene transcription and subsequently to cellular transformation. Other reports describe PC2 as a protein that has SUMO E3 activity for the corepressors CtBP and CtBP2.

Analysis shows the detection of human PC2 in probed lysates using Affinity Purified anti-hPC2 antibody.The panel on the left shows the blot probed with anti-hPC2.The panel on the right is the same blot reprobed with anti-FLAG antibody to confirm the presence of FLAG tagged recombinant PC2 in the lysate. In the left panel the band labeled as hPC2 is FLAG-tagged transfected hPC2 in 293T cells. The bands labeled with stars are likely endogenous hPC2.In the right panel the band labeled hPC2 is FLAG-tagged transfected hPC2 in 293T cells.

Anti-hPC2 antibody was used for immunofluorescent imaging of human cells (U2OS).The image reveals the expected discrete nuclear structure that is termed the PcG body corresponding to the known localization of PC2 (see Satijn et al. below).IF was performed after fixation in PBS with 4% PF for 5 min, permeabilization with 0.5% Triton X100-PBS for 5 min, and blocking with 5% milk / 0.2% Tween for 1 h. Primary antibody used at 1:200 in 5% milk / 0.2% Tween for 1 h, secondary antibody for 30 min. All blocking and incubation steps carried out at 37
