Non specific shrna

Manufactured by Santa Cruz Biotechnology

Non-specific shRNA is a laboratory tool used in gene silencing experiments. It functions by introducing short hairpin RNA (shRNA) sequences into cells, which can then trigger the degradation or translational repression of targeted mRNA molecules. This product is designed to be non-specific, meaning it is not targeted towards any particular gene.

Engineered Plasmids for Autophagy Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The plasmids pBABE-puro mCherry-EGFP-LC3B and pBABEpuro GFP-LC3 (N#22418 and 22405), engineered by Jayanta Debnath [21] , were obtained from Addgene. Cell transduction and selection were performed as previously described [20] (link), [22] (link). Genetic inhibition of autophagy was achieved using ATG7 shRNA-mediated knock down (Santa Cruz). Non-specific shRNA (control) as well as copGFP were applied according to manufacturer's instructions (Santa Cruz). Transduction was performed using lentiviral particles with up to five distinct expression constructs as described elsewhere [20] (link). Transduction efficiency was quantified by the number of GFP-positive cells and in general exceeded 94% at the end of puromycin selection.

Neonatal Rat Ventricular Myocyte Knockdown

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Control (nontransfected) neonatal rat ventricular myocytes were isolated and plated on collagen-coated chamber slides for 24 hours before being infected with anti-SAP97 shRNA lentiviral particles (7 μg/ml, Santa Cruz Biotechnology) in a polybrene mixture (5 μg/ml) (12 hours, 37°C). At 72 hours after transduction, cultures were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and analyzed by immunofluorescence (as described in Supplementary Materials and Methods). Nonspecific shRNA (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) was used as a negative control.

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.
