<p class="jove_content"> RNAi mediada silenciamento de genes em mosquitos exige preparação prévia e purificação de dsRNAs específicos que visam o gene de interesse. Para a síntese de dsRNA, recomendamos o kit Megascript Ambion que faz uso de uma RNA polimerase T7 mediada por reação <em>in vitro</em> de transcrição. Para a purificação de dsRNA, recomendamos o kit Qiagen RNeasy. Amostras de dsRNA devem ser quantificados e ajustado a 3 mcg / mL em água. Outros materiais que você vai precisar incluir: com pontas finas pinças, lâmin...

<p> Eficiência do silenciamento do gene é altamente variável e depende de uma série de fatores, incluindo transcrição e proteínas turn-over, as taxas de absorção e eficiência dsRNA pelas células e órgãos. Descobrimos que o silenciamento começa tão cedo quanto uma injeção de pós dia e pode durar até seis dias após a injecção. Utilização de métodos de detecção de transcrição e proteínas, tais como PCR quantitativo e Western blotting para validar silenciar. </p>

protocol for rnai assays in adult mosquitoes (a. gambiae)

<p class="jove_content">Reversa abordagens genéticas têm-se revelado extremamente útil para determinar quais genes de resistência a patógenos underly vetor em mosquitos. Este protocolo de vídeo ilustra um método utilizado pelo laboratório Dimopoulos para injetar dsRNA em mosquitos Anopheles gambiae, que abrigam o parasita da malária. A técnica de manipular a configuração da injeção e injetar dsRNA no tórax é ilustrado.</p>
