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 DescriptionThe 390 primary screen hits were then screened in silico against a database containing information on expression of over 11,700 genes in multiple tissues, including activated T cells and macrophage. Three hundred and eleven of the primary screen hits were
Primary Screen Description#A hit was defined as siRNA that increased b-gal activity by at least 2-fold relative to negative controls.
