siRNA Selection Server: an automated siRNA oligonucleotide prediction server
The Whitehead siRNA (short interfering RNA) Selection Web Server (http://jura.wi.mit.edu/bioc/siRNA) automates the design of short oligonucleotides that can specifically 'knock down' expression of target genes. These short sequences are about 21 nt in length, and when synthesized as double stranded RNA and introduced into cell culture, can reduce or eliminate the function of the target gene. De...
متن کاملImproved and automated prediction of effective siRNA.
Short interfering RNAs are used in functional genomics studies to knockdown a single gene in a reversible manner. The results of siRNA experiments are highly dependent on the choice of siRNA sequence. In order to evaluate siRNA design rules, we collected a database of 398 siRNAs of known efficacy from 92 genes. We used this database to evaluate previously proposed rules from smaller datasets, a...
متن کاملAsiDesigner: exon-based siRNA design server considering alternative splicing
RNA interference (RNAi) with small interfering RNA (siRNA) has become a powerful tool in functional and medical genomic research through directed post-transcriptional gene silencing. In order to apply RNAi technique for eukaryotic organisms, where frequent alternative splicing results in diversification of mRNAs and finally of proteins, we need spliced mRNA isoform silencing to study the functi...
متن کاملmiRU: an automated plant miRNA target prediction server
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in gene expression regulation in animals and plants. Since plant miRNAs recognize their target mRNAs by near-perfect base pairing, computational sequence similarity search can be used to identify potential targets. A web-based integrated computing system, miRU, has been developed for plant miRNA target gene prediction in any plant, if a large number of se...
متن کاملQuickSNP: an automated web server for selection of tagSNPs
Although large-scale genetic association studies involving hundreds to thousands of SNPs have become feasible, the associated cost is substantial. Even with the increased efficiency introduced by the use of tagSNPs, researchers are often seeking ways to maximize resource utilization given a set of SNP-based gene-mapping goals. We have developed a web server named QuickSNP in order to provide co...
