Specific silencing of endogenous RepID was achieved using an inducible shRNA-expressing vector, pSingle-tTS-shRNA (Clontech). shRNAs were inserted into the plasmid using the XhoI and HindIII cloning sites and were delivered into 2451 13T melanoma cells48 (link). Stable clones were selected, and cells conditionally expressing shRNA directed against RepID were induced (or not) with doxycycline for 16 days.
