Confirmed Hits Number145
Score2.41
UnitZ-score
Methods Assay Type Cell-based
BioModel DescriptionDrosophila DL1 cells for genome-wide RNAi screening in duplicate using dsRNAs against beta-galactosidase (beta gal) as a negative control, and dsRNA against the WNV genome as a positive control.
Confirmatory Screen DescriptionConfirmed hits were validated by genome-wide RNAi screening in duplicate, and defined as genes for which Robust Z-scores in each duplicate viral infection set of >=1.5 or <=-1.5 in duplicate (~40% change) (p <0.009).
Primary Screen Description#Any gene for which a robust Z score of >=2 or<=-2 in both replicates (p<0.001;~40% change), was defined as a hit.
Note/CommentIncreased infection(50)
