Preparation of dsRNAs for RNAi by In Vitro Transcription

Abstract

This is a simple and widely used method for the preparation of dsRNA using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) template-based, in vitro transcription reaction. The resulting dsRNA is then used to trigger RNAi in an appropriate cell or organism.
