Depositor Comments

shRNA for use as a negative control. Sequence of hairpin is:CCTAAGGTTAAGTCGCCCTCGCTCGAGCGAGGGCGACTTAACCTTAGG. For packaging, please use pCMV-dR8.2 dvpr (Addgene plasmid #8455) and pCMV-VSVG (Addgene plasmid #8454).

Please note that the 5' cloning site, AgeI, is typically destroyed during the shRNA cloning. Depending on the specific shRNA sequence, the site can occasionally be restored. AgeI is present in this plasmid.
