CRYβB2 coding sequence was cloned into a lentivirus vector (Addgene) using the Gateway Technology System (Thermo Fisher). MCF10A, MCF10AT1, and DCIS.COM cells overexpressing luciferase and CRYβB2 were generated following lentivirus infection. For immunofluorescence, MCF10AT1 cells were infected with lentivirus containing the CRYβB2 sequence tagged with the myc-DDK (flag) sequence (Origene). For CRISPR knockout, nucleolin and CRYβB2 guide RNAs were designed using sgRNA online web page from Broad Institute and cloned into Lenticrispr V2 (Addgene). 293T cells were transfected with the lentivirus constructs using Lipofectamine and viruses were used to infect cancer cells [50 (link)].
