Risc free sirna

Manufactured by Horizon Discovery

RISC-free siRNA is a type of small interfering RNA (siRNA) that is designed to silence target genes without activating the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. It functions by directly inhibiting mRNA translation, leading to the downregulation of the target gene expression.

siRNA-mediated Knockdown of Key Regulators

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
siRNA oligos against human ASPP2, Lats1, Lats2, Par3, YAP and RISC-Free siRNA were purchased from Dharmacon. Cells were transfected with the indicated siRNA oligos at a final concentration of 35 nM using Dharmafect 1 reagent (Dharmacon) for 3 to 5 days, according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Quantifying Golgi-to-ER Protein Localization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To determine the change in localization of the B4GT-EGFP-HT2 construct from the Golgi to the ER, HeLa cells were plated in 384-well plates in culture medium containing doxycycline, lipofectamine2000 and a RISC-free siRNA (Dharmacon). After 24 h, culture medium was exchanged and after an additional 24 h incubation, cells were treated for 4 h with HyT36 or DMSO. Cells were fixed with 4% PFA in PBS, washed 3× with PBS, stained with Hoechst, and imaged with a GE IN Cell analyzer 2200, with five fields of view per well. Images were analyzed with Cell Profiler (Carpenter et al., 2006 (link)). Cells were identified first by the nuclear stain and following by the GFP signal. The integrated intensity and the CV of the GFP signal were determined. The mean per well was calculated and used to generate the mean and SD over 16 wells for each condition. Data were plotted in Prism (GraphPad).

Transfection of Huh7 Cells with siRNA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Commercially synthesized siRNA oligonucleotides (IDT) were annealed to a final concentration of 20 μM (Pager et al., 2013 (link)). The following siRNA oligonucleotides were used: the RISC-free siRNA (Dharmacon, D-001220-01-05), siGL2 sense-strand 5′-CGUACGCGGAAUACUUCGAUU-3′ and siGL2 antisense-strand 5′-UCGAAGUAUUCCGCGUACGUU-3′, and siDDX6 sense-strand 5′-GCAGAAACCCUAUGAGAUUUU-3′ and siDDX6 antisense-strand 5′-AAUCUCAUAGGGUUUCUGCUU-3′. Huh7 were seeded in a 60 mm or 100 mm cell culture dish, and 24 h later transfected with siRNAs (25 nM or 50 nM) alone using either Dharmafect I (Dharmacon) or Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen), or with 25 nM siRNAs and 1 μg plasmid DNA using Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen). Transfection reactions were prepared according to the manufacturer’s specifications.

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.
