RNA was isolated from cells using the Quick-RNA TM Miniprep Kit (Zymo Research) on days 3 and 6 or 7 post-transduction (for ML-2 and K562, respectively; the late time point was selected based on depletion kinetics, see Fig. 2c). PolyA-enriched total cellular RNA sequencing was performed by Novogene Company, Ltd. Differential expression analysis was conducted in R using DESeq2 26 (Bioconductor). Gene sets from MSigDB v7.2 (H1, C2, C3, C6), custom hematopoietic 16 (link) and chromosome 15 gene sets, and PAF1c-knockout expression signatures 27 were checked for enrichment in the Broad GSEA software 28 . Custom positional gene sets were generated by walking a 1 Mb or 5 Mb window along chromosome 15. Gene ontology analysis was performed using the DAVID 29 online functional annotation tool (https://david.ncifcrf.gov/summary.jsp).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
