Figure 6.

(A) CMV (+PPT)/HeLa cell lines contain bi-directional CMV promoter that allows expression of two reporter genes [firefly luciferase (luc) and GFP]. The PPT-wt sequence (5′AAAAGAAAAGGGGGGA3′) was inserted upstream of the luc gene and a mutated version (PPT-mut, 5′AAAAGAAGGGGAGGAA3′, the four mutations are underlined) was inserted upstream of the GFP gene. (B) PNA tridecamers are efficient inhibitors of translation. Cells were reversibly permeabilized by SLO in the presence of various PNAs (see ‘Materials and Methods’ section). PNA concentrations in final culturing conditions are indicated.
