Fig. 3. Effect of metabolic inhibitors on ribonuclease-mediated cytotoxicity. (A)
Cells were incubated with NaN3 (10 mM) and 2-deoxyglucose (50 mM)
or PBS control for 1 hour at 37°C. ONC (10 µM) or K7A/G88R RNase A (25
µM) was then added, and cells were incubated for an additional 6 hours. DNA
synthesis was measured as described in Materials and Methods. (B) Cells were
incubated with NaN3 (10 mM) and 2-deoxyglucose (50 mM).
BODIPY
RNase A (1 µM) was then added, and cells were incubated for an
additional 30 minutes at 4°C. Cells were pulsed at 37°C for 30
minutes, and the fluorescence of BODIPY
RNase A was visualized
directly.
