  1. Summary of two independent PIC assays comparing the four representative hit compounds to the DMSO and Ral control. HeLaP4 cells were fixed and analyzed by confocal microscopy 5 h after infection with an eGFP-labeled IN virus. PICs were assigned as cytoplasmic or nuclear based on nuclear lamina staining
  2. aNumber of HeLaP4 cells counted in each condition
  3. bp values (Mann–Whitney U test) compared to DMSO or RAL control
  4. cMean percentage of nuclear PICs in each cell calculated using a homemade MatLab routine (The MathWorks, Inc.)
  5. d95% confidence interval (CI) for the percentage of nuclear PICs
