Abstract

A method for high-throughput cloning and analysis of short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) is described. Using this approach, 464 shRNAs against 116 different genes were screened for knockdown efficacy, enabling rapid identification of effective shRNAs against 74 genes. Statistical analysis of the effects of various criteria on the activity of the shRNAs confirmed that some of the rules thought to govern small interfering RNA (siRNA) activity also apply to shRNAs. These include moderate GC content, absence of internal hairpins, and asymmetric thermal stability. However, the authors did not find strong support for positionspecific rules. In addition, analysis of the data suggests that not all genes are equally susceptible to RNAinterference (RNAi).
