Figure 5From: A novel approach to identify driver genes involved in androgen-independent prostate cancerValidation using LV-mediated knockdown. LNCaP cells were transduced with a pGIPZ lentiviral vector expressing a shRNA targeting either ATPAF1, PTRF, or a control empty vector. Vector-exposed cells were selected using puromycin to eliminate untransduced cells. Transduced cells were then cultured in androgen-deficient medium to determine if knockdown of ATPAF1 or PTRF affected growth.Back to article page
