Differential analysis between Rev3l KO and Rev3l WT mouse embryonic fibroblast

ABSTRACT: DNA polymerase zeta (Polz) plays a key role in translesion DNA synthesis. Inactivation of the gene encoding its catalytic subunit (Rev3L) leads to embryonic lethality and abrogates cell proliferation in primary fibroblasts highlighting an essential role of Polz in mammalian cells. However, its biological function remains poorly understood. Here, we examined if the absence of Rev3L may impact on transcriptional program by performing microarray-based transcriptome profiling from Rev3L+/+ and Rev3L-/- MEFs. For this study, we used mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) that are derived from mice harboring one allele with essential exons flanked by loxP sites, and either one inactivated allele of Rev3L (Rev3L−/lox) or, one wild type allele (Rev3L+/lox).
