Abstract

Objective: To construct short hairpin RNA interfering expression vector of TDRG1,and detect the specific interfering effect of TDRG1-shRNA expression vector on NTERA-2 cells.

Methods: Oligos for short hairpin RNA targefing for TDRG1 were designed and connected to the expression vector pGPU6/GFP/Neo to construct the TDRG1 shRNA expression vector. The recombinant plasmid TDRG1-shRNA486, TDRG1-shRNA738, TDRG1-shRNA921 and lipofectamine ™2000 were used to generate and transfect shRNA into NTERA-2 cells. Expression of TDRG1 mRNA was assayed by RT-PCR.

Results: TDRG1-shRNA expression vector was successfully constructed. TDRG1-shRNA486 was more effective in the suppression of TDRG1 with significant reduction of TDRG1 mRNA.

Conclusion: TDRG1-shRNA can interfere the expression of TDRG1 in NTERA-2 cells.
