Invitrogen™ BLOCK-iT™ U6 RNAi Entry Vector Kit
Provides a simple, streamlined approach to cloning short hairpin RNA (shRNA) sequences for testing in transient transfections for RNA interference (RNAi)
Brand: Invitrogen™ K494500
Additional Details : Weight : 0.11000kg
Includes: The BLOCK-iT™ U6 Entry Vector Kit contains two boxes. The cloning box contains four tubes of linearized vector at 5ng/tube, enough to complete 5 cloning reactions per tube. Also included are 250μL 10X annealing buffer, 20μL T4 DNA ligase, 80μL 5X DNA ligase buffer, 1.4ng lacZ control oligo, 10μL lyophilized lacZ control plasmid, 1.5mL DNase/RNase-free water, and 2μg each of forward and reverse sequencing primer.
Description
An easy cloning process places an approx. 50-bp oligonucleotide DNA immediately following a U6 pol III type promoter. Expression of this RNAi cassette forms a shRNA molecule in the cell that will be processed and act as short interfering RNA (siRNA) that will generate the RNAi effect.
Delivery of the U6 RNAi Cassette
Once cloning is complete, the U6 Entry Vector is ready to be used immediately in transient transfections using a reagent such as Lipofectamine™ 2000. This makes this system ideal for initial shRNA screenings in many mammalian cell types. As an alternative in hard-to-transfect or non-dividing cell types, or to deliver to animal model systems, the RNAi cassette can easily be recombined into a BLOCK-iT Viral RNAi vector. For stable shRNA lentiviral delivery and expression, recombine the BLOCK-iT U6 Entry Vector with the pLenti6/BLOCK-iT RNAi Vector. For transient delivery to challenging cell types using adenoviral transduction, recombine with the pAd/BLOCK-iT RNAi Vector. Represents a preferred technique for analyzing gene down regulation.
