Cells were plated in 24-well plates at a density of 1 × 104 (link) cells/well and transduced with different amounts of virus. Cells were changed into fresh medium 6 h after the virus was added. The transduced cells were then expanded in M10 medium for subsequent experiments.
For lentivirus titration, genomic DNA of the cells was extracted using a DNeasy blood and tissue kit (Qiagen, Manchester, UK) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Viral copy number within the transduced cells was determined using the Primetime qPCR probe assay (Integrated DNA Technologies, Leuven, Belgium).

For determination of PAL differential gene expression for both the inhibitor experiments (Section 2.2) and the experiments with transgenic cell lines (Section 2.7), total RNA was extracted using a Quick-RNA Plant Kit (Zymo Research). Cell samples were homogenized using a Bullet Blender as previously described in Section 2.5, following which RNA extraction was performed according to manufacturer’s instructions. Immediately following RNA extraction, cDNA was synthesized using approximately 1 μg of total RNA using the ProtoScript II First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit (New England Biolabs). Expression of PAL was then quantified using an Applied Biosystems 7500 Real-Time PCR System (Thermo Fisher). PrimeTime qPCR Probe Assays (Integrated DNA Technologies) were designed for the PAL gene as well as the housekeeping gene (actin) using the IDT PrimerQuest design tool (Supplementary Table S1). HEX/ZEN/Iowa Black FQ probes were used for the housekeeping gene and FAM/ZEN/Iowa Black FQ probes were used for PAL, to enable in-well multiplexing. The log2fold change in expression of PAL relative to the respective control for each experiment was calculated using the double delta Ct method.

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.
