PIG3 is required for normal mitotic progression. a Exponentially growing PIG3 depleted and control A549 cells were subjected to immunofluorescent analysis using the indicated antibody. The representative images show aberrant mitotic cells with misalignment chromosomes (arrowheads). b Percentages of mitotic cells showing misaligned chromosomes were counted from three independent experiments (** P < 0.01). c A549 cells were transfected with control siRNA or PIG3 siRNAs for 48 h and stained with an anti-phosphorylated H3 antibody to determine the percentage of mitosis cell population by flow cytometry. d Quantitative analysis of mitotic index. Results were generated from three independent experiments (** P < 0.01)
