This part is intended to bring a synthetic gene under the control of miR-34 in human cells. A gene carrying a target site for a functional miR will be repressed by RNA interference. The target site works by placing it downstream of the ORF you want to repress. In our hands, a gene with this part does not appear to be repressed in one cell line (U2OS) where miR-34 is produced at a minimal level in proliferating cells.

miR-34 target sequence, based on the BCL2 3' UTR
Alias: FC01


Usage and Biology

This part is intended to bring a synthetic gene under the control of miR-34 in human cells. A gene carrying a target site for a functional miR will be repressed by RNA interference. The target site works by placing it downstream of the ORF you want to repress. In our hands, a gene with this part does not appear to be repressed in one cell line (U2OS) where miR-34 is produced at a minimal level in proliferating cells. Perhaps this target requires higher levels of miR-34 to function.
