Electrophoretic mobility shift assay. (A) Two μL of NPMS-RAR charged reticulocyte lysate (left panel) or 5 μL NPML-RAR reticulocyte lysate (right panel) was incubated with 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, or 1.0 μl RXR reticulocyte lysate before incubation with radiolabeled RARβ oligonucleotide. (B) In vitro translated NPMS-RAR + RXR, NPML-RAR + RXR, or RXR alone were preincubated with 100-fold excess of cold control oligonucleotide (lane 1), cold RARβ oligonucleotide (lane 2), or no oligonucleotide (lane 3) before addition of the radiolabeled RARβ oligonucleotide. (C) 1 μg affinity purified MBP-NPMS-RAR was incubated with the radiolabeled RARβ oligonucleotide (lane 1) or preincubated with 100- (lane 2) or 1000-fold (lane 3) molar excess of unlabeled RARβ oligonucleotide before incubation with the labeled oligonucleotide.
