A Web-based design center for vector-based siRNA and siRNA cassette
SUMMARY To facilitate the designing process for vector-based siRNA and siRNA cassette, a tool set has been developed consisting of a siRNA target finder, a siRNA construct builder and a siRNA sequence scrambler. The siRNA target finder is used to identify candidate siRNA target sites. The program automates homology filtering, minimizes non-specific cross-reaction, filters target sites based on ...
متن کاملStructure-Based Design of Dendritic Peptide Bolaamphiphiles for siRNA Delivery
Development of safe and effective delivery vectors is a critical challenge for the application of RNA interference (RNAi)-based biotechnologies. In this study we show the rational design of a series of novel dendritic peptide bolaamphiphile vectors that demonstrate high efficiency for the delivery of small interfering RNA (siRNA) while exhibiting low cytotoxicity and hemolytic activity. Systema...
متن کاملsiVirus: web-based antiviral siRNA design software for highly divergent viral sequences
siVirus (http://siVirus.RNAi.jp/) is a web-based online software system that provides efficient short interfering RNA (siRNA) design for antiviral RNA interference (RNAi). siVirus searches for functional, off-target minimized siRNAs targeting highly conserved regions of divergent viral sequences. These siRNAs are expected to resist viral mutational escape, since their highly conserved targets l...
متن کاملAsiDesigner: exon-based siRNA design server considering alternative splicing
RNA interference (RNAi) with small interfering RNA (siRNA) has become a powerful tool in functional and medical genomic research through directed post-transcriptional gene silencing. In order to apply RNAi technique for eukaryotic organisms, where frequent alternative splicing results in diversification of mRNAs and finally of proteins, we need spliced mRNA isoform silencing to study the functi...
متن کاملDesign of a peptide-based vector, PepFect6, for efficient delivery of siRNA in cell culture and systemically in vivo
While small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) have been rapidly appreciated to silence genes, efficient and non-toxic vectors for primary cells and for systemic in vivo delivery are lacking. Several siRNA-delivery vehicles, including cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs), have been developed but their utility is often restricted by entrapment following endocytosis. Hence, developing CPPs that promote endoso...
