Krüppel-like factor 3 KO and rescue expression data in murine embyronic fibroblasts. Mus musculus

Krüppel-like factor 3 (KLF3) is a transcriptional repressor that has roles in adipogenesis, B-cell maturation and erythropoiesis (for review see Pearson et al., 2012). We profiled gene expression in murine embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) where Klf3 had been knocked-out and where the same cell had been rescued with Klf3 using microarrays. Overall design: Klf3 KO murine embryonic fibroblast cell lines were produced from Klf3 KO mice. These cells were rescued with epitope tagged Klf3 (Klf3-V5) using retroviral delivery (murine stem cell virus). Stable clones were selected uner puromycin seletion and total RNA was taken for array
