5 protocols using dual luciferase reporter gene kit

1

Validating miR-129-5p Targeting of GRM5 and LINC00314

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
3′-UTR of the GRM5 or LINC00314 gene containing putative miR-129-5p targeting site was amplified by chemical synthesis and was inserted into the psiCHECK2 vector (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). When the confluence was up to 70%, ADSCs were transfected with related mixtures including 50 ng GRM5/LINC00314 wild-type or GRM5/LINC00314 mutant-type 3′-UTR reporter plasmids, miR-129-5p mimics, or miR-129-5p NC in a final concentration of 20 nM, and Lipofectamine 2000 for 48 h. Luciferase activity was detected using the dual-luciferase reporter gene kit (Beyotime, Shanghai, China).

Keap-1 3'-UTR Luciferase Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The HCMs were first inoculated into 12-well plates at a density of 1×105 cells per well. The 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of the Keap-1 gene containing putative miR-129-5p targeting site was amplified by chemical synthesis and was inserted into the psiCHECK2 vector (Promega, Madison, WI, USA).When the confluence reached 70%, the HCMs were transfected with related mixtures, including 50 ng keap-1 wild-type or keap-1 mutant-type 3'-UTR reporter plasmids, miR-129-5p mimics or miR-129-5p NC in a final concentration of 20 nM, and Lipofectamine 2000 for 48 hours. Luciferase activity was detected using the dual-luciferase reporter gene kit (Beyotime, Shanghai, China).

Validating miR-124-3p Targets XIST and IRF1

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The starbase database predicted that there were targeted binding sites between miR-124–3p and 3′ untranslated region (UTR) of XIST, IRF1. The targeting relationship was further verified by dual-luciferase reporter experiment. The wild-type (WT)/mutant (MUT) plasmid of XIST and the WT/MUT plasmid of IRF1 were transfected into BV2 cells together with NC mimic and miR-124–3p mimic, respectively. After culture for 48 h in a cell incubator, the luciferase activities were measured according to the instructions of the dual-luciferase reporter gene kit (Beyotime, Shanghai China). Renal luciferase activity was served as internal reference.

Regulatory mechanism of RUNX2 by miR-505

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MC3T3-E1 cells were firstly inoculated into 12-well plates at a density of 1 × 105 cells per well. 3′ UTR of the RUNX2 gene containing putative miR-505 targeting site was amplified by chemical synthesis and was inserted into the psiCHECK2 vector (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). When the confluence was up to 70%, MC3T3-E1 were transfected with related mixtures including 50 ng RUNX2 wild-type or RUNX2 mutant-type 3′ UTR reporter plasmids, miR-505 mimics or miR-505 mimics NC in a final concentration of 20 nM, and Lipofectamine 2000 for 48 h. Luciferase activity was detected using the dual-luciferase reporter gene kit (Beyotime, Shanghai, China).

Luciferase Assay for CX3CL1 Promoter

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
GC cells were seeded onto a 96-well plate at the concentration of 3,000 cells per well for 24 h of culture. The cells were transfected with CX3CL1 promoter sequence plasmids (Genechem, Shanghai, China) persistently expressing firefly luciferase. The pRL-TK plasmids persistently expressing Renilla luciferase (the control) were used to evaluate the transfection efficiency. A dual luciferase reporter gene kit (Beyotime, China) and a multifunctional enzyme labeling instrument (Molecular Devices, USA) were used to detect the luciferase activity of each group.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
