Materials
Reagents required

  • RNAiMAX (Invitrogen)
  • Opti-MEM (Invitrogen)
siRNA-mediated knockdown of TFE3
1h 30m
On the day before transfection, plate 100,000 cells per well in a 6 well dish.
Change media 01:00:00 before transfection (2 mL with no antibiotics).
1h
The next day, assemble the siRNA transfection reaction by combining 7.5 µL of 20 micromolar (µM) siRNA, 5 µL RNAiMAX transfection reagent (Invitrogen), and 500 µL Opti-MEM (Invitrogen) in a sterile 1.7ml tube.
Incubate transfection mix at Room temperature for 00:30:00 .

30m
After incubation, add the transfection mixture drop wise to the cells.
Collect the lysates for immunoblotting 2 days post-transfection.
