The MiR-X miRNA First-Strand cDNA synthesis kit (Clonetech, Mountain View, CA, USA) was used to construct cDNA from total RNA purified by TRIzol (Invitrogen). RT-qPCR was performed using the specific primers listed in Supporting Information to determine the miRNA levels. For miRNA reporter gene assays, the 3′UTR of human SETD1A (5948–6,271 bp) was inserted into pEGFP-C1 (BD Bioscience) to prepare EGFP reporter constructs, as described previously.25 (link) A mutant reporter construct was generated using a KOD plus mutagenesis kit (Toyobo, Osaka, Japan). The reporter construct or the miRNA was transfected using Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen). Tissue sample are described in the Supporting Information.

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.
