KRAS and PART1 Modulation in Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
shRNA targeting KRAS was obtained from Dharmacon and was transduced in NCI-H2444 and NCI-H647 cells. Cells were selected with puromycin (2 µg/mL) for 2 weeks. siRNA targeting PART1 (Assay ID: n260057; 5ʹ- GGAACAACACAGAUGAGAUtt – 3ʹ) or a negative control siRNA (#4390843) were obtained from ThermoFisher Scientific. PART1 overexpression plasmid or negative control vector was obtained from GeneChem (Shanghai, China). For transfection cells were plated in antibiotic-free media. Cells were transfected with control or PART1 siRNA (10 nM final concentration) using Polyplus jetPrime transfection reagent. For transduction, BEAS-2B cells were transduced with either lentiviral particles containing control or PART1 overexpression construct using polybrene. Cells were selected with puromycin (2 µg/mL) for 2 weeks. All indicated treatments were done 48 hours following siRNA transfection. Successful knockdown or overexpression was verified by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR).

Quantifying Gene Expression via RT-qPCR

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was extracted using Trizaol (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Two micrograms of total RNA was subjected to a random-primed reverse transcription using SuperScritpt 2 reverse transcriptase (Invitrogen). Real-time PCR was conducted in triplicates using Applied Biosystem 7900 HT with 5 ng of cDNA, 1 μM of each primer pair and SYBR Green PCR master mix (Roche). The primer sequences were listed in Table S1. Relative mRNA levels were normalized to GAPDH. SiRNA targeting PR was purchased from Thermo Fisher (Cat N. J-003433-08-0005).

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.
