To validate these candidate sites, we constructed K341R, K961R, and a TRIM24 mutant with deletion from 300 460aa covering K303/K325/K341/K458. Ubiquitination assays revealed that TRIM24 Δ300 460 mutant was no longer ubiquitinated by SPOP, while K341R and K961R remained ubiquitinated, suggesting that SPOP likely ubiquitinates multiple lysine sites within 300 460aa region (Fig. 3h).
