Chaf1a (s77588) and negative control Silencer Select siRNAs were purchased from LifeTechnologies. Dux siRNA pools were generated using Giardia Dicer. Briefly, primers were designed to amplify two ~400bp fragments of the endogenous Dux locus from genomic mouse DNA and add T7 handles (see Supplementary Table 14). Purified PCR products were then used as template for in vitro transcription using the MEGAscript® T7 Transcription Kit (ThermoFischer, AM1334). Template DNA was then degraded and the ssRNA allowed to anneal before dicing. Diced siRNAs were purified using the PureLink™ Micro-to-Midi Total RNA purification Kit (Invitrogen, 12183-018) with modifications. siRNA concentration was measured with the Qubit® RNA HS Assay Kit (ThermoFisher, Q32852). mESCs containing the MERVL:GFP reporter were transfected with 20pmol (10pmol of each) of total siRNA using RNAiMax (Life Technologies). All siRNA transfections were performed twice (on back to back days) to ensure knockdown.

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.
