The Human Whole Genome siRNA Set V1.0 — a powerful discovery tool

QIAGEN has introduced an exciting new product to its range of solutions for high-throughput RNAi — the Human Whole Genome siRNA Set V1.0.

This comprehensive set comprises siRNAs targeting ~22,000 human genes. Innovative and unique design features, flexible formatting options, and full sequence disclosure make this set a powerful and valuable tool for drug discovery and functional genomics. In December 2005, the set was delivered to several pharmaceutical companies and research institutions in US, Europe, and Japan.

siRNAs in the Human Whole Genome siRNA Set are designed using the unique HiPerformance siRNA Design Algorithm which incorporates cutting-edge neural-network–based design and stringent homology analysis. This combination generates highly potent and specific siRNA which results in high target gene knockdown with minimal off-target effects.

QIAGEN is the leading provider of flexible, innovative solutions for high-throughput RNAi. The Human Whole Genome siRNA Set is the latest addition to the comprehensive RNAi product range. The set is available in a variety of modules, formats, and scales making it highly adaptable to individual lab requirements. In addition, an siRNA set for the mouse druggable genome and subsets targeting kinases, phosphatases, and GPCRs will be released shortly.

The Human Whole Genome siRNA Set is provided with complete siRNA sequence disclosure at no extra cost. All rights to any invention or discovery developed by researchers using these sequences belong to the researcher allowing complete freedom for discovery.
