Description
We compared in triplicate mRNA levels from cells treated with siRNA against either HCF-1 or, as a negative control, luciferase. We observed that 19% of Refseq annotated genes are differentially expressed (either up or down regulated with a multiple testing corrected p value of 0.05) upon depletion of HCF-1. This large number of differentially expressed genes upon HCF-1 depletion demonstrates a broad role of HCF-1 in the regulation of gene expression.
