Abstract

This data represents the effect of miR-155 on the expression of commonly used housekeeping genes, GAPDH, Beta Actin, RPL13A, and U6. The human miR-155 and control RNA were transfected to A549 cells by electroporation. Expression of these genes was compared in both groups by real-time PCR. The significant up-regulation in the expression of GAPDH was observed in the miR-155 transfected samples as compared to control while no major change was observed in the expression of the other three genes.
