Generating IGFBP-3 Silencing Construct

To design IGFBP-3 shRNA construct, the rat IGFBP-3 gene sequence (GI:M31837) was analyzed for a potential siRNA target using the web-based siRNA target finder and design tool provided on the Ambion website (Ambion, Inc., Austin, TX). Double-stranded siRNAs (nucleotide position: 611) were transcribed “in vitro” using the Silencer siRNA construction kit (Ambion) following the manufacturer’s instructions. The inhibitory siRNA (5′-GCGCTACAAAGTTGACTATGA-3′, nucleotide position 611) was then cloned into the pGPU6/GFP/Neo plasmid vector (2nd version, Ambion) as a short hairpin DNA sequence (5′ sense strand:5′-CACCGCGCTACAAAGTTGACTATGATTCAAGAGATCATAGTCAACTTTGTAGCGCTTTTTTG-3′) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The pGPU6/GFP/Neo-IGFBP-3 shRNA plasmid was purified using Endo-free Maxi kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA). Plasmids were quantitated by spectrophotometry and prepared in 0.9% saline solution at a concentration of 1.0μg/μL.

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.
