UBE2V2 and breast cancer: To ask whether an elevated UEV1A level is indeed sufficient to promote breast cancer, UEV1A, UEV1C or MMS2 genes were cloned into a pcDNA4.0/TO/HA(+) vector and then transfected into MDA-MB-231-TR cells to construct stable cell lines, and the level of ecotopic gene expression after 10 μg/ml doxycycline (Dox) treatment was monitored by qRT-PCR (Additional file 2: Figure S2A-C) and western blot against the HA tag (Figure 2A), Uev1 (LN2B, Additional file 2: Figure S2D) or Uev1 plus Mms2 (LN3, Additional file 2: Figure S2E).
