Optimized protocols for RNA-induced silencing complex assembly and cleavage in cultured Drosophila cells

Summary: Here, we provide an optimized RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) assembly and cleavage protocol in vitro without using radiolabeled RNA. The protocol is useful to characterize the biochemical properties of the RISC. We describe the preparation of RNA probes, the target RNA, and Drosophila...
