Methods Assay Type Cell-based
BioModel DescriptionHeLa P4/R5 cells (which contain ectopically expressed CD4 as well as an integrated HIV LTR-driven b-gal reporter) for screening a siRNA library targeting 19,709 genes with 22,329 pools (3 siRNAs per gene)
Confirmatory Screen DescriptionTwo hundred and ninety-one of these siRNAs were selected for validation using independent siRNAs.
Primary Screen Description#A hit was defined as siRNA that increased b-gal activity by at least 2-fold relative to negative controls.
Note/CommentIncreased or inhibited infection(26)
