Luciferase assays were performed as described (Wang et al., 2008a (link)). The putative bidirectional promoter for lncEGFL7OS/EGFL7 was PCR amplified from human DNA and cloned into promoterless PGL3 Basic luciferase vector (Promega). Primers include: plncEGFL7OSup (XhoI): 5’-atcgCTCAGATAGACTCTGATGGCCCAGG-3’ and plncEGFL7OSdn (XhoI): 5’ –atcgCTCAGACCAGCTTGGTGCAGGGAG-3’. 293 T cells in 24-well plates were transfected with 50 ng of reporter plasmids in the presence or absence of increasing amount of Ets1 or Ets1 DNA-binding mutant expression plasmid.
