In the same way, when paired with Atg5 Knockdown iBMK (T3027) and Atg7 Knockdown iBMK (T3028), they present an attractive model for investigating the relationship between autophagy and metabolism homeostasis. Western blot was used to confirm the presence of E1A and p53DD gene in the immortalized cell line.
