Ten micromoles of actinomycin D (Sigma, prepared in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)), or an equivalent volume of DMSO (Gibco) as a control, was added to PC3 cells in culture 48 h after transfection with WT or mutant plasmids. Cells were harvested prior to actinomycin D treatment, and again after 1 h of treatment. RNA was extracted for cDNA synthesis and subsequent qPCR amplification and quantitation of luciferase mRNA expression.
