SignalSilence® mTOR siRNA I from Cell Signaling Technology (CST) allows the researcher to specifically inhibit mTOR expression using RNA interference, a method whereby gene expression can be selectively silenced through the delivery of double stranded RNA molecules into the cell. All SignalSilence® siRNA products from CST are rigorously tested in-house and have been shown to reduce target protein expression by western analysis.

Product Usage Information
CST recommends transfection with 100 nM mTOR siRNA I 48 hours prior to cell lysis. For transfection procedure, follow protocol provided by the transfection reagent manufacturer. Please feel free to contact CST with any questions on use.Each vial contains the equivalent of 100 transfections, which corresponds to a final siRNA concentration of 100 nM per transfection in a 24-well plate with a total volume of 300 μl per well.





SignalSilence® siRNA is supplied in RNAse-free water. Aliquot and store at -20ºC.

Western blot analysis of extracts from HeLa cells, transfected with either control siRNA (-) or SignalSilence® mTOR siRNA I (+), using mTOR Antibody #2972 and eIF4B Antibody #3592. The mTOR antibody confirms silencing of mTOR expression and eIF4B antibody is used to control for loading and specificity of mTOR siRNA.
