About RNAi on CGAP
The NCI is part of the consortium supporting the preparation of human and mouse
libraries containing RNAi constructs that target cancer-relevant and other genes.
The clones produce small RNA molecules, called shRNA (short hairpin RNA), that are available
to the public from a
commercial distributor.
The first shRNA clone release appeared on March 25, 2004 and was in the pSHAG-MAGIC vector.
Recent modifications have generated an improved pSHAG-MAGIC2c vector and, therefore,
the entire first set of clones has been replaced. This second release will contain targets
to the original gene set and additional new genes. However, the RNAi targets may be different
from those in the first release due to the introduction of a new and improved algorithm.
We hope to have the complete collection available by December 2004.
