shRNA against cyclin T1 expressed from a lentiviral vector can efficiently knock down cyclin T1 protein expression. (A) Untransduced cells (Parental MM6 cells) or MM6 cells infected at a m.o.i. of five with lentiviral vectors expressing a shRNA against cyclin T1(shRNA-T1) or a control shRNA against a mismatch sequence in cyclin T1 (shRNA-Con) were analyzed by flow cytometry at day five post-infection. The lentiviral vectors express an eGFP marker protein. The percentages of the GFP positive cells are indicated. (B) Cell extracts were prepared at day five post-infection from the cultures described in A which were either untreated or treated with PMA for 24 hours. Immunoblots were performed to measure levels of cyclin T1, CDK9 and β-actin proteins.
