Plv ef1a ires neo vector

Manufactured by Addgene

The PLV-EF1a-IRES-NEO vector is a plasmid designed for gene expression studies. It contains the EF1a promoter, an internal ribosome entry site (IRES), and a neomycin resistance gene (NEO) for selection purposes. This vector allows for the expression of a gene of interest along with a selectable marker.

shRNAs targeting mouse Fip200 5′-GCTGAATTTCAGTGCTTAGAA-3′ (TRCN0000084986) and 5′-CCAACTTTAACACAGTCTTAA-3′ (TRCN0000084987) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. A scrambled shRNA as control was purchased from Addgene (plasmid #1864). sgRNAs targeting mouse Fip200 (5′-TTCTCTAGAAATAACACTAA-3′; 5′-CTCCATTGACCACCAGAACC-3′), Atg5 (5′-CCCTATAGACCACGACGGAG-3′), Atg7 (5′-GAACGAGTACCGCCTGGACG-3′) and Opn (5′-GCAAATCACTGCCAATCTCA-3′; 5′-GCAGAATCTCCTTGCGCCAC-3′) were respectively cloned into LentiCRISPR v2 vector (Addgene #52961) according to the protocol previously reported63 (link). sgRNA targeting EGFP (Addgene #86153) was used as control. Spp1 overexpression clone was constructed by RT-PCR from HUVEC RNA and then insertion into pLV-EF1a-IRES-Neo vector (Addgene #85139).
All lentiviral productions were generated by transfecting into HEK293T cells with psPax2, pMD2.G and lentiviral plasmids, as described previously64 (link). Tsc1iΔEC cells were then transduced by different lentivirus containing specific sgRNA followed with puromycin selection for one week. The efficiencies of Fip200 knockdown, Fip200, Atg5 and Atg7 knockout or re-overexpression of osteopontin in tumor cells were confirmed by western blot.

Silencing SPRED1 in THP-1 Cells

The siRNA-targeting region (GCAGATGACTTACAAGCAA) of the human SPRED1 gene (NM_152594.2, CDS 1,335 bp) was designed, synthesized, and ligated with the Tet-pLKO-puro vector (Addgene). First, we observed the growth state of the THP-1 cells and made sure that the exact volume of the venom was absorbed (the ratio of virus number to THP-1 cell number was 100:1), which was added to the prepared medium. With the culture medium removed from the cells, the calculated virus venom plus medium was added to the target cells. Plates were cultured under the following conditions, shaking for a constant mixture of the media while at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 48 h. Afterward, we selected the detection of related indicators.
The Tet-pLKO-puro vector (Addgene) was used as a non-silencing control or for carrying SPRED1 target shRNA. This is the sequence used for SPRED1 shRNA: GCAGATGACTTACAAGCAA. For SPRED1 expression, the vector was constructed by cloning human SPRED1 cDNA (NM_152594.2) into pLV-EF1a-IRES-NEO vector (Addgene) according to the standard procedure. Lentiviral packaging and transductions were carried out using standard procedure and according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Cells transfected with a virus carrying an empty vector were used as a negative control (control group), and untreated cells were used as a blank control (blank 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.
