Transcription profiling of mouse fibroblast cells transfected with zinc-inducible C/EBP expression vectors identifies Per2 as a gene implicated in myeloid leukemia

ABSTRACT: The zinc-inducible C/EBP expression vectors pMTa, pMTb, pMTd and pMTe were constructed by cloning the human C/EBPa, C/EBPb, C/EBPd and C/EBPe cDNAs, respectively, into the pMTCB6+ vector. NIH 3T3 cells were transfected with zinc-inducible C/EBP vectors as well as control empty vector using the GenePORTER™ transfection Reagent (GTS Inc.). Multiple polyclonal clones were obtained by selection with G418 (700 mg/ml). Clones were screened by Western blot analysis for C/EBP protein expression following induction for 16 h with ZnSO4 (100 mM). Triplicate clones of NIH 3T3 cells were induced by addition of ZnSO4 (100 mM) for 16 h to the medium. Total RNA was isolated using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). Biotinylated cRNAs were prepared and hybridized to murine MG_74Av2 microarrays (Af
