Overexpression and Knockdown of FGF14-AS2

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A construct overexpressing FGF14-AS2 was generated by ligating the full-length human FGF14-AS2 into vector pLVX-EF1α-IRES-puro (Clontech, Mountain View, CA, USA). For FGF14-AS2 knockdown, shRNA oligos against FGF14-AS2 were synthesized, annealed, and ligated into vector pLentilox 3.7 (Addgene, Cambridge, MA, USA), with a nontargeting control sequence (shNC) as the control. Table S3 lists the primers used. High-titer lentivirus was packaged in HEK 293T cells. The viral particles were collected by centrifugation at 48 h post transfection, and applied to cells in the presence of 5 μg/mL polybrene for 48 h. FGF14-AS2-overexpressing cells were selected using puromycin (5 μg/mL) for 2 weeks. Gene knockdown and overexpression were confirmed by qRT-PCR.

Lentiviral Constructs for miR-221 and QKI-5

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The full-length sequence of miR-221 and the full-length coding region of the QKI-5 mRNA (NM_001301085) were amplified by PCR (Table S1) and cloned into the pEIZ-HIV-ZsGreen lentivirus vector and the pLentiLox3.7-EF1α-mCherry vector, a derivative of pLentiLox3.7 (Addgene: #11795), respectively (5 (link)). The lentivirus vectors encoding for the anti-miR-221 construct (miRZip-221) and a non-targeting pre-miRNA (negative control) were purchased from System Biosciences (USA).

Lentiviral Transduction of Pluripotent Stem Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We utilized the lentiviral vector pLentiLox 3.7 (pLL3.7, Addgene plasmid 11795) (23 (link)) expressing the mouse scrambled shRNA or shGata6 (sequence HpaI-shGata6-5p-F TG-CGGTC TCTACAGCAAGATG-TTCAAGAGA-CATCTTGCTGTAGAGA CCG-CTTTTTTC, XhoI-shGata6-5p-R TCGAGAAAAAAG-CGG TCTCTACAGCAAGATG-TCTCTTGAA-CATCTTGCTGTAGAG ACCG-CA) (Sigma Aldrich) which has GFP as a selection marker. For the generation of lentivirus, we transfected HEK293T cell with 20 μg of a lentiviral vector, 10 μg of PLP1 (Invitrogen), 10 μg of PLP2 (Invitrogen), 10 μg of VSVG (Invitrogen) using a transfection agent, polyethyleneimine (Polysciences). After 24 hours, we changed the medium with DMEM/high glucose (Gibco) supplemented with 10% FBS (Gibco). After 24 hours, we harvested the supernatant and added 10 ml of growth medium for the second harvest. For lentivirus transduction, we prepared retronectin (TaKaRa, Japan)-coated 35 mm dish. We seeded 2 × 105 PE-iPSC or mESC on the dish with 1.5 ml virus supernatant and 1.5 ml fresh growth medium. After 24 hours, we collected the whole cells in the dish and re-seeded on a dish with STO feeder layer. After 7 days, we mechanically selected undifferentiated colonies expressing GFP. We dissociated the colonies with 0.25% Trypsin/EDTA (Gibco) and then seeded them on a dish with STO feeder layer.

Lentiviral Overexpression of Anti-miR-93 in Breast Cancer Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The sequence of precursor miR‐93 (mature miR‐93 and its 5′‐ and 3′‐ flanking regions) and the full‐length coding region of the WASF3 mRNA (NM_006646.6 [GenBank]) were amplified by PCR and cloned into the pEIZ‐HIV‐ZsGreen or mCherry lentivirus vector (Addgene: #18121) or the pLentiLox3.7‐EF1α‐mCherry vector, a derivative of pLentiLox3.7 (Addgene: #11795), respectively.18 The lentivirus vectors encoding for the anti‐miR‐93 construct (miRZip‐93) and a nontargeting control (negative control) were purchased from System Biosciences. Lentiviruses were produced as previously described.24 Breast cancer cells were infected with lentivirus constructs at a MOI of 5.

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.
