Abstract:
Objective To construct pSUPER-ARPC2 vector and to obtain its expression in eukaryotic cell, in order to down-regulate the expression of ARPC2. Methods Oligonucleotide sequences specific for ARPC2 were designed for RNAi, and cloned into pSUPER.basic vector after annealing by restriction enzyme digestion and ligation. After identification by restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing, the plasmid of positive clones was transfected into HEK 293 cells for three times. The expression of ARPC2 was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. Results It was found that the expression of ARPC2 was definitely knocked down by transfection with pSUPER-ARPC2. Conclusions The RNAi expression vector of ARPC2 was constructed successfully, which was showed to possess the ability to knockdown the expression of ARPC2 by different methods. So, pSUPER-ARPC2 should be a powerful tool in the study of function of ARPC2.
