Does knocking down Trx1 lead to activation of JNK/P38 or ASK? Initial evidence - HCT116, Trx KD doesn’t activate JNK/P38 Opposite effect on ASK activation. No effect on JNK

Can Quinols dissociate Trx1/ASK1 directly? • HCT116 whole cell lysates (WCL) prepared • Lysates treated with 5mM AW464 for 3h • Immunopreciptiation carried out as before • Needs repeating! ASK1 WCL DMSO 5mM AW464 IP: Trx
