In Vivo RNA Strand Displacement

Strategy 1: Lipofectamine 2000 Transfection of RNA version of Reporter from Winfree/QIan 2011 Paper


Strategy 2: Switch Transfection reagent to RNAiMAX
Strategy 3: Tag RNA strand with an Alexa Fluorophore to act as a transfection marker

Strategy 4: Create DNA plasmids driving transcription of RNA inputs, while transfecting RNA Reporter

Strategy 4: Nucleofect RNA reporter, RNA inputs

[Strategy 5]: Redesign RNA Reporter
