Pcdna3.1 vector
The PcDNA3.1 vector is a plasmid designed for expression of recombinant proteins in mammalian cell lines. It contains a cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter, which drives high-level transcription of the inserted gene. The vector also includes a neomycin resistance gene, allowing for selection of transfected cells.

For transfection procedures, both plasmids and siRNAs were introduced into 231 Parental or 231 LuT3 cells using Lipofectamine 3000, adhering strictly to the manufacturer’s protocol. At 48 h post-transfection, cells were analyzed using western blot and real-time qPCR techniques, with a subset reserved for additional experimentation.
Modulating TPT1-AS1 in Colorectal Cancer
TPT1-AS1 siRNAs specially targeting TPT1-AS1 were designed and synthesized by GenePharma (Shanghai, China). The most interference effectiveness of target sequence was chosen to be packaged lentiviruses by GenePharma (Shanghai, China). A scrambled was used as negative control. To construct TPT1-AS1 downregulated cells model, HCT116 or LoVo (1×105 cells) were mixed with polybrene (5 μg/ml), and Lv-sh-TPT1-AS1(4×108 TU/ml, 5 μL), or Lv-con(2×108 TU/ml, 10 μL). 48 hours later, transfected cells were selected by 20 μg/ml puromycin (Thermo Fisher, USA).
For overexpressional plasmids construction, the TPT1-AS1 sequence and TPT1 cDNA ORF were synthesized and subcloned into the pcDNA3.1 vector (General Biosystems, Chuzhou, China). Plasmids were transfected into cells using Lipofectamine 2000 (Thermo Fisher, USA) following the manufacturers’ instructions. Cells were harvested at 48 h after transfection.
Rat Prolactinoma Cell Line Transfection
In addition, siRNA of Becn1, miRNA-93-5p inhibitor, miRNA-93-5p mimic and corresponding negative control were purchased from GenePharma (Shanghai, China) (Table 1). Hereinafter, miRNA-93 is specifically referred to as miR-93-5p in the 'Materials and methods' and 'Results' sections. The coding domain sequence of the rat Flag-Atg7 mRNA was amplified by PCR using the rat cDNA as a template and inserted into the pcDNA 3.1 vector (General Biosystems, Inc.). We performed transfection using the Lipofectamine2000 Transfection Reagent (Invitrogen) as per the manufacturer's instructions.
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.
