Cell culture K562 cells were acquired from ATCC and maintained in Isocove’s Modified Dulbecco’s Media (IMDM) (Life Technologies) containing 10% fetal bovine serum. Adherent STAG2null lines were detached for subculture using trypsin-EDTA (0.005% final concentration, Life Technologies). Differentiation to megakaryocytes was induced using 30 nM of phorbol 12myristate 13-acetate (Kuvardina et al., 2015) (PMA, Sigma). BET inhibitor JQ1 (catalogue #S7110; TOCRIS) was used at 500 nM (Bhagwat et al., 2016). Images of cells in culture were taken using x20 objective on an Olympus THP4.
