MISSION^® shRNA Gene Family Sets

Choose from 25 Pre-Designed shRNA Gene Panels

• All TRC shRNA clones have been methodically mapped to each current gene set by our Bioinformatics team.
• Gene family sets for human (22) and mice (3) include popular kinases, phosphatases, GPCRs, tyrosine kinases, and epigenetic regulators.
• Any panel can be arrayed in either 96- or 384- well plate formats
• All gene family sets can be used at the benchtop for focused target discovery and pathway analysis.
