The arrayed, lentiviral ORF screen was performed as previously described26 (link). Effects of individual ORFs on drug resistance were determined by measuring differential viability (ratio of raw viability in 1 µM PLX4720: control) and subsequent normalization to an assay-specific positive control, MEK1DD. Secondary screens were performed with the top nine candidate ORFs in 96-well format in A375 and SKMEL28 cells. Prioritization was accomplished via generation of a GI50 for each ORF across a multi-point PLX4720 concentration range in both cell lines. The effects of identified resistance ORFs on MAPK pathway activation were demonstrated using both biochemical and cell biological approaches. Cell line copy number data was obtained as previously described27 (link). Detailed descriptions of all procedures are included in Materials and Methods.
