General description

The MISSION® siRNA Transfection Reagent is for the transfection of siRNA to achieve ≥90% silencing efficiency for transient knockdown of eukaryotic gene expression.
Effective gene silencing and reduced off target effects are achieved using a low siRNA concentration (1nM). The siRNA Transfection Reagent is provided as a sterile solution, and is compatible with serum and antibiotics.

Other Notes

Gene silencing assay: An A549 cell line stably expressing firefly luciferase was transfected in 24-well plates with 8.4 ng of 21-mer Luciferase siRNA using 2 μL of the MISSION® siRNA Transfection Reagent. Experiments were performed in triplicate in presence of serum. Cell lysates were assessed for luciferase expression 48 hours post-transfection.

It was recently shown that the 5' to 3' exoribonuclease XRN2 is involved in the DNA damage response. Importantly, loss of XRN2 abrogates DNA double stranded break repair via the non-homologous end-joining pathway. However, the mechanistic details of how XRN2

Cellular survival is dependent on the efficient replication and transmission of genomic information. DNA damage can be introduced into the genome by several different methods, one being the act of DNA replication. Replication is a potent source of DNA damage

Hyperactivation of the PI3K/AKT pathway is observed in most human cancer including lung carcinomas. Here we have investigated the role of miRNAs as downstream targets of activated PI3K/AKT signaling in Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). To this aim, miRNA

Tumours are comprised of a highly heterogeneous population of cells, of which only a small subset of stem-like cells possess the ability to regenerate tumours in vivo. These cancer stem cells (CSCs) represent a significant clinical challenge as they are

Telomeres, the protective ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, are replicated through concerted actions of conventional DNA polymerases and elongated by telomerase, but the regulation of this process is not fully understood. Telomere replication requires (Ctc1/Cdc13)-Stn1-Ten1, a telomeric ssDNA-binding complex homologous to
