The miR-491 (pre-miR-491) expression vector and related control vector were constructed by synthetic oligonucleotides and cloned into the pcDNA6.2-GW/EmGFP vector (Invitrogen) between the EcoRI and HindIII sites as previously described.37 (link), 38 (link) Using bioinformatic analyses, we identified a fragment of Wnt3a as a miR-491-5p target. The 3′-UTR of the human Wnt3a mRNA was constructed by synthetic oligonucleotides and cloned into the pmir GLODual-Luciferase miRNA Target Expression Vector (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) between the SacI and XhoI sites as previously described.37 (link), 38 (link) A miR-491-5p inhibitor, an inhibitor negative control, and siRNAs targeting Wnt3a were chemically synthesized (GenePharma, Shanghai, China). Wnt3a was cloned into the GV230 vector (Genechem, Shanghai, China) between the XhoI and KpnI sites. Foxi1 was cloned into PEGFP-C1 between the HindIII and BamHI sites (GENEWIZ, Suzhou, China). A 127 bp sequence containing the wild-type or mutant Foxi1-binding site was cloned into the pGL3 promoter vector between the KpnI and XhoI sites (GENEWIZ). All the sequence information is given in Supplementary Table S2.

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.
