General description

The clones are sequenced-verified shRNA lentiviral plasmids (pLKO.1-puro) provided as 50 μl bacterial glycerol stocks (Terrific Broth, carbenicillin at 100 μg/ml and 15% glycerol). The set comes in 96-well plates that are barcoded for simple identification. A CD containing RefSeq, gene description, gene symbol, clone ID, hairpin sequence, locus link, and plate map positions are provided with the gene family set.

Other Notes

Each MISSION shRNA clone is constructed within the lentivirus plasmid vector, pLKO.1-Puro, followed by transformation into Escherichia coli. The pLKO.1-Puro vector contains bacterial (ampicillin) and mammalian (puromycin) antibiotic resistance genes for selection of inserts in either bacterial or mammalian cell lines. Each clone set consists of an average of 3-5 constructs that have been designed against each target gene using a proprietary algorithm. Therefore, a range of knockdown efficiency, with at least one construct from each gene set being >70%, can be expected when using these clones. This allows one to examine the effect of loss of gene function over a large series of gene knockdown efficiencies. Each shRNA construct has been cloned and sequence verified to ensure a match to the target gene.

G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are an important class of ligand-activated proteins that regulate cellular metabolism. It is now appears that GPCR function is highly dependent upon the cellular environment in which it is expressed. Indeed, the cell phenotype influences

Research on the structure, regulation and signalling properties of the family of seven-transmembrane-helix, heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G-protein)-coupled receptors (GPCRs) continues at a frantic pace. This reflects their central role in transmission of hormone- and neurotransmitter-encoded information across the plasma

Genetic variation in G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) results in the disruption of GPCR function in a wide variety of human genetic diseases. In vitro strategies have been used to elucidate the molecular pathologies that underlie naturally occurring GPCR mutations. Various
