Gene regulation in biological responses BIOMEDICAL PROBLEM HYPOTHESIS TESTING high throughput/ single gene SCREENING genome-wide system-wide HYPOTHESIS GENERATION data analysis Hypothesis testing Differentiation High throughput •96 well plates •array based Single gene •knock-up •knock-down (RNAi) animal models Proliferation Apoptosis What is RNA interference? •RNAi is a way to silence gene expression •To perform RNAi, dsRNA homologous to the targeted gene is made and then introduced into cells •Any mRNA with high sequence homology to the dsRNA may be silenced “Essentially, you're destroying mRNA in a very targeted manner." How does RNAi work? 1) Processing the dsRNA into 21-23 nt fragments long dsRNA siRNAs Dicer contains two RNAse III domains siRNAs have a defined structure 19 nt duplex 2 nt 3’ overhangs Model for RNAi siRNA RISC RNAi in mammalian cells siRNA: short interfering RNA shRNA: short hairpin RNA shRNA Need to further characterize mammalian RNAi • How long does it last? • How much dsRNA is required? •Which siRNA/shRNA will work? • Can any region of a gene be effectively targeted? Delivery, delivery, delivery…... Practical aspects of RNAi • Biological research – defining gene function (gene knockout) • C. elegans and Drosophila genome RNAi projects – defining biochemical pathways • microarray screening of RNAi knockouts • Therapeutic treatment – cancer – viral infection – parasitic infection RNAi: High-throughput screen protocol Hypothesis testing: high throughput/single gene Reverse Transfection RNAi + Microarray High-throughput selection of effective RNAi probes for gene silencing.Kumar R, Conklin DS, Mittal V.
