| Title |
HeLa DGCR8 siRNA #2, miRNA |
| Sample type |
RNA |
| |
|
| Source name |
HeLa cells, DGCR8 siRNA-2
|
| Organism |
Homo sapiens |
| Characteristics |
cell line: HeLa
cell type: cervical adenocarcinoma
treatment: DGCR8 siRNA-2
|
| Treatment protocol |
HeLa cells were transfected with siRNAs using RNAiMAX (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
|
| Growth protocol |
HeLa cells were grown in DMEM containing 10% FCS.
|
| Extracted molecule |
total RNA |
| Extraction protocol |
Total RNA was isolated using Trizol reagent according to the manufacturer's instructions.
|
| Label |
biotin
|
| Label protocol |
2ug of total RNA was labeled using the microRNA FlashTag Biotin HSR kit following the manufacturer's instructions.
|
| |
|
| Hybridization protocol |
Biotin-labeled microRNAs were hybridized according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
|
| Scan protocol |
An Affymetrix GCS3000 laser scanner was used to collect fluorescence signal at 3um resolution after excitation at 570 nm. The average signal from two sequential scans was calculated for each microarray feature.
|
| Description |
miRNA expression data from DGCR8 siRNA #2-transfected HeLa cells.
|
| Data processing |
Affymetrix miRNA QCTool was used to quantitate expression levels for targeted genes; default values provided by Affymetrix were applied to all analysis parameters. Border pixels were removed, and the average intensity of pixels within the 75th percentile was computed for each probe. The average of the lowest 2% of probe intensities occurring in each of 16 microarray sectors was set as background and subtracted from all features in that sector. Probe pairs were scored positive or negative for detection of the targeted sequence by comparing signals from the perfect match and mismatch probe features. The number of probe pairs meeting the default discrimination threshold (tau = 0.015) was used to assign a call of absent, present or marginal for each assayed gene, and a p-value was calculated to reflect confidence in the detection call. A weighted mean of probe fluorescence (corrected for nonspecific signal by subtracting the mismatch probe value) was calculated using the One-step Tukey's Biweight Estimate. This Signal value, a relative measure of the expression level, was computed for each assayed gene. Global scaling was applied to allow comparison of gene Signals across multiple microarrays: after exclusion of the highest and lowest 2%, the average total chip Signal was calculated and used to determine what scaling factor was required to adjust the chip average to an arbitrary target of 150. All Signal values from one microarray were then multiplied by the appropriate scaling factor.
