Figure Lengend Snippet: A. IMCR-seq results showing the differential expression of different circular RNAs in the MDA-MB-468-RR and in the shHNRNPL-1 cells. The blue dots highlight the top 5 differentially expressed circular RNAs whereas the other labels represent other circular RNAs that can function as ceRNAs B. A graph showing the let-7 binding score for each circular RNA in comparison to its abundance (based on ranking of circular RNAs from CPM values) in MDA-MB-468-RR cells. C. mRNA expression of the top ceRNAs identified by Circr in the MDA-MB-468-RR and HNRNPL-knockdown cells (n=3, mean ± SD, one-way ANOVA with Dunnett’s multiple comparisons tests). D. mRNA expression of the top ceRNAs in MDA-MB-468 transfected with empty vector and HNRNPL (n=3, mean ± SD, unpaired t-test two-tailed). E. mRNA expression of ITGβ3 after siRNA treatment of the ceRNAs, with a representative image of the surface expression of integrin β3 and quantification based on flow cytometry (n=3, mean ± SD, unpaired t-test two-tailed). F. Representative flow cytometry data showing the surface expression of integrin β3 in the HNRNPL knockdown cells transducing with an empty plasmid or circRAB12 . The graphs quantify the fold change in integrin β3 surface expression in the HNRNPL knockdown cells after transducing them with an empty plasmid or circRAB12. n=3, mean ± SD, unpaired t-test two-tailed.
Article Snippet: The circular RNA forming plasmid was digested with BsmbI-v2 (R0739S, NEB) and then cloned with the circRAB12 gBlock using the 2x HiFi DNA Assembly Master mix (E2621S) based on the manufacturer’s instructions.
