Attenuation of NONO decelerates NHEJ. (A) HeLa cells knocked-down with a scrambled siRNA (lanes 3 and 4) or a siRNA directed against NONO (lanes 5 and 6) were treated for 2 hr with NCS (500 ng/ml) and allowed to recover for either 60 or 120 min. Cells were then collected, embedded and lysed in agarose blocks and used for pulse-field gel electrophoresis. (B) A linearized, 32P-end-labeled pBluescript was incubated for the indicated times with a nuclear extract derived from HeLa cells treated with a scrambled siRNA (lanes 2–9) or an siRNA directed against NONO (lanes 10–17). (C) Quantitation of the end joining events using a phosphorimager: The percent end joining represents the total signal intensity per lane normalized to 100% from which is substracted the % intensity of the remaining template (n = 4).
