Pentr vector

Manufactured by Addgene
Sourced in United States

The pENTR vector is a plasmid designed for Gateway cloning. It is used to create entry clones that can then be recombined with destination vectors to generate expression constructs. The pENTR vector contains attL1 and attL2 recombination sites, which allow for the transfer of DNA sequences between entry and destination vectors using the Gateway cloning system.

Lentiviral Knockdown of SUMO1P3

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For lentiviral construction, the sequence of short hairpin RNA (shRNA) targeting SUMO1P3 (shSUMO1P3) or a scrambled shRNA (shNC) was cloned into pENTR vector (Addgene, Cambridge, MA, USA). pMDLg/pRRE and pRSV-REV are lentiviral packaging plasmids. HEK293T cells were cotransfected with the recombinant pENTR, pMDLg/pRRE and pRSV-REV plasmids. After 48 h, the medium was collected for the purification of viruses. MHCC97H-luciferase (MHCC97H-luc) cells were incubated with virus-containing supernatants in the presence of 8 mg/ml polybrene. The stable-infected cells were screened for 2 weeks by 5 μg/mL of puromycin (Sigma).

Overexpression and Knockdown of EMT Regulators

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Full-length FOXQ1, SNAIL1, TWIST1, ZEB2, and DDR2 plasmids were purchased from Open Biosystems. These genes were subcloned into the pENTR vector (RRID:Addgene_149548) and transferred into a pLenti6 vector (BRID: Addgene_21691) via homologous recombination. The lentivirus for the full-length gene was then generated using the lentivirus-expression system (Invitrogen). In addition, a set of short hairpin RNA (shRNA) clones for DDR2, FOXQ1, or SNAIL1 was purchased from Open Biosystems. The information for the effective shRNA is available in Supplementary Primers and shRNA information. The lentivirus for the shRNA was then generated using the Trans-Lentiviral packaging system (Addgene). The generated lentivirus was then used to infect the targeted model cells. Stable cells were generated after being selected with Blasticidin (10 μg /mL) for the overexpression model or puromycin (12 μg/mL; Invivogen) for the knockdown model.

Full-length FOXQ1, SNAIL1, TWIST1, ZEB2, and DDR2 plasmids were
purchased from Open Biosystems (Huntsville, AL). These genes were sub-cloned
into the pENTR vector (RRID:Addgene_149548) and transferred into a pLenti6
vector (BRID: Addgene_21691) via homologous recombination. The lentivirus for
the full-length gene was then generated using the lentivirus-expression system
(Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). In addition, a set of shRNA clones for DDR2, FOXQ1,
or SNAIL1 was purchased from Open Biosystems. The information for the effective
shRNA is available in Supplementary Primers and shRNA information. The lentivirus for the
shRNA was then generated using the Trans-Lentiviral packaging system (Addgene,
Watertown, MA). The generated lentivirus was then used to infect the targeted
model cells. Stable cells were generated after being selected with Blasticidin
(10 μg /ml) for the overexpression model or puromycin (12 μg /ml)
(Invivogen, San Diego, CA) for the knockdown model.

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.
