Some MDSR genes are required for entry/progression into S-phase following serum stimulation. (a) A schematic representation of the experimental approach: cells infected with shRNA vectors for the genes indicated were starved for 2 days and then stimulated with serum. (b, c) Two-dimensional fluorescence-activated cell sorter profiles of cells stimulated for the indicated time period are shown, along with the percent of BrdU-positive cells measured at each time point. (d) Percentages of apoptotic cells, as assayed by cleaved caspase-3 staining and flow cytometry, following knockdown of the indicated genes and 24 h of serum stimulation. (e) Cells were infected with the indicated shRNA retroviruses or with a non-silencing control shRNA. Puromycin-selected cells were trypsinized and plated in duplicate for colony formation assay. After 10–12 days of culture, cells were fixed and stained with crystal violet. A representative experiment is shown.
