Figure 4. Cell proliferation without Ki-67.(A) Schematic representation of strategy for TALEN-mediated generation of Mki67 null allele. (B) qRT-PCR analysis of Ki-67 mRNA levels in NIH-3T3 WT clone W4 and Ki-67-negative 60, 65, 99 clones. (C) Top: Western blot of Ki-67 and Cyclin A in NIH-3T3 WT clone W4 and Ki-67-negative mutant clones 60, 65, 99; LC, loading control; below, Ki-67 immunofluorescence; bar, 10 µm. (D) Left, growth curves of WT and Ki-67 null cell lines 60, 65 and 99; right, cell cycle distribution analysed by flow cytometry. (E) Cell cycle length of WT clone W4 and Ki-67 null clones 60 and 65 as determined by time-lapse videomicroscopy. (F) Cells of clone 65 show altered chromosomal periphery in mitosis. The Ki-67 staining is deliberately overexposed to demonstrate absence of detectable Ki-67 in clone 65, even in metaphase. Bar, 5 µm.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.13722.019Figure 4—figure supplement 1. Generation of NIH-3T3 cells lacking Ki-67.Top, schematic representation of the wild type (WT), knock-out or eGFP knock-in Mki67 locus and the predicted insertion of tandem repeats of the eGFP insert upstream of Mki67 locus. Bottom, Southern-blot of two NIH-3T3 WT clones (WT, W4) and six NIH-3T3 Ki-67 mutant clones (60,63,65,82,99). Clones were digested with PstI or SphI and probed with 5’ or 3’ probe, respectively.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.13722.020
