Discovery of novel targets with high throughput RNA interference screening.
High throughput technologies have the potential to affect all aspects of drug discovery. Considerable attention is paid to high throughput screening (HTS) for small molecule lead compounds. The identification of the targets that enter those HTS campaigns had been driven by basic research until the advent of genomics level data acquisition such as sequencing and gene expression microarrays. Larg...
متن کاملGUItars: A GUI Tool for Analysis of High-Throughput RNA Interference Screening Data
BACKGROUND High-throughput RNA interference (RNAi) screening has become a widely used approach to elucidating gene functions. However, analysis and annotation of large data sets generated from these screens has been a challenge for researchers without a programming background. Over the years, numerous data analysis methods were produced for plate quality control and hit selection and implemente...
متن کاملEvaluation of a Novel Metric for Quality Control in an RNA Interference High Throughput Screening Assay
The application of genome scale RNA interference (RNAi) relies on the development of high quality RNAi high throughput screening (HTS) assays. An important quality control (QC) characteristic in an HTS assay is how well the positive controls, samples, and negative controls can be separated from each other in the assay. Signal-to-noise ratio, signal-to-background ratio, Z-factor and Z’-factor ha...
متن کاملHigh-throughput RNA interference screens in Drosophila tissue culture cells.
This chapter describes the method used to conduct high-throughput screening (HTs) by RNA interference in Drosophila tissue culture cells. It covers four main topics: (1) a brief description of the existing platforms to conduct RNAi-screens in cell-based assays; (2) a table of the Drosophila cell lines available for these screens and a brief mention of the need to establish other cell lines as w...
متن کاملRNA interference screening demystified
Genetic screens, where the effects of modifying gene function on cell behaviour are assessed in a systematic fashion, have for some time provided useful information to those interested in disease pathogenesis and treatment. Genetic screens exploiting the phenomenon of RNA interference (RNAi) are now becoming commonplace. This article explains the different RNAi screen formats and describes some...
