Figure Lengend Snippet: A) Timeline of shRNA infection and analysis of mRNA and protein expression. B) Western blot shows expression of eIF3B protein in Ocy454 cells at differentiation day 7 following stable infection with the indicated shRNAs. C) mRNA expression of Eif3b in Ocy454 cells at differentiation day 7 following stable infection with the indicated shRNAs. Line shows median of three biologic replicates. *p<0.05. D) Flow cytometry results show percent of cells labeled with CD61-PE antibody compared to isotype control at a range of differentiation timepoints following stable infection with the indicated shRNAs. Error bars show standard deviation for all replicates at each time point. E) mRNA expression of Itgb3 in Ocy454 cells at differentiation day 10 following stable infection with the indicated shRNAs. Line shows median of three biologic replicates. *p<0.05. F) Histograms show intensity of CD61-PE fluorescence compared to isotype control at differentiation day 7 for cells stably expressing FLuc-targeting shRNA and Itgb3-targeting shRNA. G) Histograms show intensity of CD61-PE fluorescence compared to isotype control at differentiation day 7 for cells stably expressing FLuc-targeting shRNA and Itgb3-targeting shRNA.
Article Snippet: CRISPRi sgRNA sequences and shRNA sequences were designed using Broad Institute tools CRISPick ( https://portals.broadinstitute.org/gppx/crispick/public ) and TRC shRNA Design ( https://portals.broadinstitute.org/gpp/public/seq/search ).
