(A) Representative light microscopy images of HEK293T CTRL, ADAT2 KD and ADAT3 KD cells in the presence of the indicated stress agents. Those that directly affect the translation machinery are highlighted in purple. HygroB: hygromycin B. BlaS: blasticidin S. CHX: cycloheximide. (B) Cellular viability (metabolic activity) measured by WST-1 assays for the indicated cell lines in the presence of antibiotics depicted in (A). Shown are biological triplicates, their means and SD relative to untreated cells. n.s.: not statistically significant. *: P-value < 0.05. **: P-value < 0.01 (t-test). (C) Evaluation of cell adhesion to components of the extracellular matrix. Col I, II and IV: collagen I, II and IV respectively. FN: fibronectin. LN: laminin. TN: tenascin. VN: vitronectin. Box plots represent min-to-max cell adhesion relative to the means of HEK293T CTRL cells based on four biological replicates. n.s.: not statistically significant. *: P-value < 0.05. **: P-value < 0.01. ***: P-value < 0.001 (t-test).
