RNAi knock down of VCP in human HeLa cells


ABSTRACT: Study of the effects of the VCP knockdown. VCP (p97, yeast cdc48) is a hexameric AAA ATPase involved in various cellular functions including degradation of proteins by the ubiquitin-proteasome system. We examine the consequences of the reduction of VCP levels after RNAi of VCP in HeLa cells. We find ~30 transcripts upregulated in a sequence independent manner. Those transcripts encode proteins involved in endoplasmic reticulum stress, apoptosis, and amino acid starvation.

Valosin-containing protein (VCP; p97; cdc48 in yeast) is a hexameric ATPase of the AAA family (ATPases with multiple cellular activities) involved in multiple cellular functions, including degradation of proteins by the ubiquitin (Ub)-proteasome system (UPS). We examined the consequences of the reduction of VCP levels after RNA interference (RNAi) of VCP. A new stringent method of microarray analysis demonstrated that only four transcripts were nonspecifically affected by RNAi, whereas approxima  ...[more]
