SRSF1-mediated splicing of Bcl-xL inhibits autophagy through disruption of the formation of the autophagy initiation complex. 293 T cells were co-transfected with different combinations of Beclin1, PIK3C3, and Bcl-xL expression vectors in af. a 293 T cells were co-transfected with pEGFP-C1-Beclin1 and control vector; or pEGFP-C1-Beclin1 and Flag-PIK3C3 expression vector; or pEGFP-C1-Beclin1 and HA-Bcl-xL expression vector, respectively. Co-immunoprecipitation assay was carried out with anti-GFP antibody and the precipitated complexes were measured by western blot with anti-HA, anti-Flag, or anti-GFP antibodies. b 293 T cells were co-transfected with pEGFP-C1-PIK3C3 and control vector; or pEGFP-C1-PIK3C3 and Flag-Beclin1 expression vector; or pEGFP-C1-PIK3C3, and Flag-Beclin1 and HA-Bcl-xL expression vectors. c 293 T cells were co-transfected with pEGFP-C1-Beclin1 and control vector; or pEGFP-C1-Beclin1 and Flag-PIK3C3 expression vector; or pEGFP-C1-Beclin1, and Flag-PIK3C3 and HA-Bcl-xL expression vectors. d 293 T cells were co-transfected with pEGFP-C1-PIK3C3 and control vector; or pEGFP-C1-PIK3C3, and Flag-Beclin1 expression vector; or pEGFP-C1-PIK3C3, and Flag-Beclin1 vector, with increased amounts of HA-Bcl-xL expression vectors (100 ng and 500 ng) respectively. e 293 T cells were co-transfected with pEGFP-C1-Beclin1 and control vector; or pEGFP-C1-Beclin1, and Flag-PIK3C3 expression vector; or pEGFP-C1-Beclin1, and Flag-PIK3C3 expression vector, with increased amounts of HA-Bcl-xL expression vectors (100 ng and 500 ng) respectively. Three experiments were conducted respectively and the mean ± SD of the relative ratio of the precipitated Beclin1 or PIK3C3 were analyzed and plotted in be. f 293 T cells were co-transfected with pEGFP-C1-Beclin1 and control vector; or pEGFP-C1-Beclin1 and Flag-Bcl-xL expression vector; or pEGFP-C1-Beclin1 and Flag-Bcl-xS expression vector. Co-immunoprecipitation assay was carried out with anti-Flag M2 beads and the precipitated complexes were measured by Western blot with anti-HA, anti-Flag, or anti-GFP antibodies in bf. g H1299 cells with overexpression of Bcl-xL were used for the immunoprecipitation experiments. Immunoprecipitation assay was performed with anti-PIK3C3 antibody and the endogenously precipitated complexes were measured by western blot assay with anti-Beclin1 antibody. The lysate was applied to examine the autophagy status
