For transient expression, cells were transfected with lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen) or Mirus X2 (Mirus Bio. LLC) at approximatively 60% confluency. For infections, Phoenix cells were transfected at approximatively 50% confluency using lipofectamine 2000, with 10 μg of retroviral plasmids (pMSCV-puromycin) and 5 μg of packaging plasmid. Virus-containing supernatant were collected, filtered (0.45 μm), and added to target cells (HCT116, hTERT-RPE1) with polybrene (8 μg/ml). Infected cells were selected on puromycin (HCT116, 2 μg/ml; hTERT-RPE1, 5 μg/ml).
