EBV-miR-BHRF1-2 downregulates PRDM1 protein levels in LCL cells. (a) CCL159 or CCL156 cells were transfected either with 1 μM of EBV-miR-BHRF1-2 inhibitor, or with 1 μM mirvana miRNA inhibtior negative control. PRDM1 mRNA level was measured 48 h post transfection, and normalized to negative control. (b) Whole cell lysates were prepared from the above indicated transfectants at 48 h. PRDM1 protein expression was determined by western blotting. Lamin B was included as a loading control. Note: The doublet appears to be artifactual and was not seen in the immunoblots in Figures 3c and 6b. (c) Normalized PRDM1 protein was expressed as a percentage relative to the negative control, and graph was plotted using the prism 6 software (La Jolla, CA, USA). Error bars represent the s.e.m. from technical replicates. *P<0.05.
