    摘要: A microarray can be configured for hybridizing with short nucleic acids, such as miRNA or siRNA, contained within a sample. Such a microarray includes a polynucleotide trap coupled to a substrate of a microarray site. The polynucleotide trap includes a probe that selectively hybridizes with short nucleic acid sequences, and a linker that is coupled to the substrate and configured to extend the probe from the substrate. Additionally, the polynucleotide trap can include an enhancer that hybridizes with the linker in order to enhance functionality of the probe. The linker and/or enhancer are configured to inhibit the probe from interacting with the linker or substrate. This can include the linker and/or enhancer being configured to have a minimal secondary structure so as to present the probe region for hybridizing with the target polynucleotide and inhibit the linker region or probe region from interacting with the substrate.

    摘要: A reverse transfection apparatus can be used for introducing siRNA into a cell to effect gene silencing. Such an apparatus can include a well plate having a well configured for transfecting cells. The well can include a substantially dry gene silencing composition that has at least a first siRNA which silences a first target gene. The gene silencing composition can be configured such that the at least first siRNA is capable of being solubilized or suspended in an aqueous medium in an amount sufficient for transfecting cells in the well. Additionally, the at least first siRNA can include a modification or a conjugate. The reverse transfection apparatus can be provided as a kit or system that additionally includes cells, polynucleotide carriers, reverse transfection reagents, and the like.

    摘要: An RTF testing plate can include at least a first control well including a substantially dry first control composition having at least a first control siRNA. The first control siRNA is capable of providing a first indication of the gene silencing efficacy. Additionally, the first control composition can be configured such that the first control siRNA is capable of being solubilized or suspended in an aqueous medium in an amount sufficient for transfecting cells in the first control well. The control siRNA can be any one of a transfection control siRNA, positive control siRNA, or negative control siRNA. Optionally, the total amount of control siRNA in the first control composition can be present in an amount for transfecting cells in only the first control well.
