Pmirglo basic reporter vector

Manufactured by Promega
Sourced in United States

The PmirGLO‐basic reporter vector is a plasmid designed for gene expression studies. It contains a multiple cloning site for inserting a gene of interest, along with a luciferase reporter gene for monitoring transcriptional activity. The vector is suitable for a variety of cell lines and applications requiring a basic reporter system.

Wild‐type (wt) or mutant (mt) promoter sequence of BRCA1 or lnc‐HZ10 was fused into the luciferase pmirGLO‐basic reporter vector (Madison, Promega, USA). Swan 71 cells were co‐transfected with 300 ng pmirGLO‐wt/mt‐BRCA1 or pmirGLO‐wt/mt‐HZ10 and 200 nm AhR plasmid or its vector in Lipofectamine 3000 (Invitrogen). Luciferase activity was measured using Dual‐Luciferase Reporter assays (E1910, Promega, USA). Briefly, trophoblast cells were incubated for 24 h and lyzed in passive lysis buffer on ice for 20 min. Cell lysates were then mixed with luciferase assay reagent. The firefly luciferase activity was measured on a fluorescence analyzer (PE envision, PE, China). Subsequently, cell lysates were incubated with stop reagent and the renilla luciferases activity was measured as background value.

Identifying miR-150-5p Binding to PVT1

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
StarBase v2.0 database (41 (link)) was used to analyze the potential miRNAs that interact with PVT1. miR-150-5p was identified as a potential miRNA. Human PVT1-3′-untranslated region (3′-UTR) and GLUT-1-3′-UTR reporter constructs containing the potential binding site of miR-150-5p, and their identical sequences with a mutation in the seed sequence, which were constructed into pmiR-GLO-basic reporter vector (Promega Corp.). Cells (2×105 cells/well) were plated into 48-well plates for 12 h, co-transfected with the indicated plasmids and miR-150-5p mimics for 24 h. The plasmids (200 ng) were mixed with Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.), Renilla luciferase plasmids and DMEM for 30 min and then added into the prepared cells for 24 h. Finally, the luciferase activities were measured by the Dual-Luciferase Assay kit (Promega Corp.) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Every sample was tested for three times and the whole experiment was repeated for three times.

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.
