Short hairpin rna

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

Short hairpin RNA (shRNA) is a type of laboratory equipment used in molecular biology experiments. It consists of a short, double-stranded RNA molecule designed to target and silence specific genes. The core function of shRNA is to induce RNA interference, a biological process that can selectively inhibit the expression of target genes.

Lentiviral Knockdown of MUC1 Gene

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the generation of MUC1 knockdown cells, short hairpin RNA (shRNA) constructs, with scrambled SCR or targeting two independent regions of MUC1 mRNA, were obtained from Millipore Sigma (Burlington, MA USA). These lentiviral constructs were used to generate packaged lentiviruses by transfecting the constructs with packaging constructs into HEK293T cell to produce supernatants which were used to transduce indicated cells. Cells were selected at 48 hours post infection using puromycin for 72 hours or until complete death of un-infected cells.

Targeted silencing of immune sensors

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Short hairpin RNA (shRNA) against human DAI, LRRFIP1, AIM2, ATG5, TLR4, and RAGE were obtained from Sigma (St. Louis, MO, USA) and were transfected into cells using lentiviral-mediated transfection (Sigma) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Detection of knockdown was assayed by Western blot.

RNAi Mediated Depletion of HOXB9 and FOXA2

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA interference was performed as previously described (Ma et al., 2017; Yang et al., 2015) . The short hairpin RNA was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO). The sequences targeting HOXB9 were 5-CCCTTCAATTTGTAGACTCTT-3 and 5-CTCCTCAATCTGAGTGAGAGA-3 and targeting FOXA2 were 5-CAAGGGAGAAGAAATCCATA-3 and 5-GAACGGCATGAACACGTACAT-3.

Plasmid Generation and Reagent Use

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Details of all yeast and human cell line plasmids are listed in Supplementary Data 1. All plasmids generated in this study were constructed using the Gibson assembly cloning kit (NEB), in accordance with manufacturer guidelines. About 30 bp overlaps were utilized for DNA fragment joining; Sanger sequencing confirmed successful cloning. Chemicals used in this paper: FM4-64 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, T3166), Lucifer yellow (Thermo Fisher Scientific, L453), Thapsigargin (Enzo Life Sciences, BML-PE180-0001), Dynasore (Sigma Aldrich, D7693), MG132 (VWR, 89161-566), CHX (Amresco, 94271-5G), Rapamycin (Fisher Scientific, BP2963-1). ATG5 siRNA was purchased from CST. Short hairpin RNAs were bought from Sigma Aldrich.

Lentiviral shRNA Transfection in 293T, Kasumi-1, and K562 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human embryonic kidney 293T cells (ATCC) were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium supplemented with streptomycin (100 µg/ml), penicillin (50 U/ml), and 10% fetal bovine serum. Short hairpin RNAs (shRNA; Sigma-Aldrich) were cotransfected into 293T cells along with pHR and VSVG plasmids to produce shRNA lentiviruses. Kasumi-1 and K562 cells were transfected with shRNA lentiviruses targeting GNAS (shGNAS) or a negative control (shNC).

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.
