Methods Co-immunoprecipitation, GST pull-down and immunofluorescent assay were used to determine the combination of EBNA3C and Gemin3 and their combining domain. Stable EBNA3C knockdown cell lines were made by lentivirus-delivered small hairpin RNA and then puromycin selection. Western blot was used to check the effect of EBNA3C on Gemin3 expression. Results EBNA3C and Gemin3 combined with each other in vivo and in vitro through their C-terminals. EBNA3C up-regulated Gemin3 gene expression. Conclusion EBNA3C forms complex with Gemin3 and up-regulates its expression.展开更多
