NFKB1 and NFKB2 differently modulate transcriptional profile of MT-2 cells
To investigate the effects of NFKB signaling, RNA-seq analysis was performed on both Jurkat and MT-2 cells. It was observed that either NFKB1 or NFKB2 knockout could alter the gene expression profile in MT-2 cells compared to Jurkat cells. Gene expression profiles of NFKB1/NFKB2 knockout Jurkat cells were compared to the mock edited Jurkat cells. On the other hand, it was hypothesized that the gene expression profile of MT-2 cells can be more drastically altered by NFKB1 or NFKB2 knockout. NFKB2 knockout MT-2 cells exhibited a unique gene expression profile compared to those of NFKB1 knockout MT-2 cells and mock edited MT-2 cells.
