To ask if Rictor regulates the subcellular localization of MKL1 in HCC cells, we cotransfected plasmids encoding NLS-GFP and mCherry-MKL1 into Rictor-KD HCCLM3 cells and fluorescence images were taken after cells were starved under the low-serum conditions (1% FBS). This evidence concerns the gene RICTOR and hepatocellular carcinoma.
