Design Notes

We designed specific MOR siRNAs based on a free software accessible online. This tool can find the best siRNA sequences on target gene MOR to insure the maximum gene-specificity and silencing efficacy. This tool also designs the pair of oligonucleotides needed to generate short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) in the plasmid.

This part is an artificially designed RNA strand. It serves as an element of the Team NJU-CHINA RNAi module. We use them as siRNA medicine to downregulate the expression of Mu opioid receptor in brain tissue. We designed specific MOR siRNAs based on a free software accessible online. This tool can find the best siRNA sequences on target gene MOR to insure the maximum gene-specificity and silencing efficacy. This tool also designs the pair of oligonucleotides needed to generate short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) in the plasmid. Then we synthesize the shRNA sequences with the help of a DNA synthesis company. We totally got four such shRNA plasmids. Although MOR siRNA-4 plasmid can efficiently knock down MOR expression, it does not show best interference efficiency and therefore serve as a backup.
