A fusion reagent for rapid and efficient gene silencing in living cells—the improvement of siRNA transfection
- Exceptionally efficient siRNA transfection, especially in primary and non-dividing cells, such as keratinocytes
- Extremely low cytotoxicity
- Fastest siRNA delivery—no endocytosis or lysosomal degradation
Applications
- Gene silencing / protein knockdown
- RNA interference (RNAi)
- Regulation of gene expression by siRNA transfection
Technical Features
- Lipofection-independent transfer of siRNA into living cells
- Fast siRNA transfection into the cytoplasm: no endocytosis, no lysosomal degradation, and no gene transfer to the nucleus
- siRNA transfer completed within 5-20 minutes
- Small amount of siRNA is sufficient for effective knockdown
- Excellent biocompatibility because of low cytotoxicity
- siRNA transfer into cells without generating genetically modified organisms (GMO), in contrast to viral or plasmid-based approaches
