Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNAit tool was used to design RNAi target against PEX1 coding sequence (CDS), the selected RNAi target has no significant similarity to other CDSs in T. brucei. PEX1 RNAi construct was stably transfected into bloodstream form trypanosomes and following clonal selection, the cells were seeded at a density of 0.5 million cells/ml and treated with DMSO as negative control (-Tet) or RNAi-induced with 2 µg/mL tetracycline (+Tet) in biological triplicates. The growth of the cells was monitored daily by cell counting using the Neubauer chamber over a period of 6 days, both in the presence (+Tet) and absence of inducer (-Tet i.e., equivalent DMSO). Cells were harvested on days 1 and 2, and RNA was isolated using NucleoSpin® Mini kit (Macherey Nagel). Quantitative Realtime PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed using GoTaq® 1-Step RT-qPCR kit (Promega) with primers specific for PEX1 (RE7039-RE7040) and Tubulin (control, RE7000-RE7001), respectively. qRT-PCR of the samples was performed using Rotor-Gene™ 6000 (Qiagen). The results were analyzed using double delta Ct method (Livak and Schmittgen, 2001 (link)) and graphically plotted using GraphPad Prism 10 software. To study the effect of proteasomal inhibition, cells were treated with 25 µM MG-132 (Sigma) for 6 h, along with tetracycline induction at 2 µg/mL.

Virus titers in nasal swabs, BAL fluid, and lung accessory lobe were determined by plaque assay on MDCK cells as previously described (25 (link)). Viral RNA was extracted from BAL fluid and homogenized lung samples with QIAamp viral RNA mini kit (Qiagen) according to 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.
