Impact of RC-L1 expression and retrotransposition on p53 mutant cells. (A) Confirmation of L1 retrotransposition by PCR as revealed by a 342 bp product. (B) The histograms represent the distribution of cells through the cell cycle measured by flow cytometry and analyzed with ModFit. "A" untransfected T47D cells. "B" T47D cells transfected with EGFP "C" T47D cells transfected with RC-L1. (C) RC-L1- expression determined by immunofluorescence using anti-L1 ORF1 and anti-L1 ORF2 rabbit polyclonal antibodies (upper panels). Detection of the induction of γ-H2AX nuclear foci formation using anti-γ-H2AX polyclonal antibody (lower panels). (D) Pro-apoptotic bax gene expression level determined by immunoblotting using anti-Bax polyclonal antibody in T47D cells either expressing RC-L1, or treated with 5Gy radiation or both and assessed at the indicated time points.
