Here, we present a faster protocol for the simultaneous plasmid restriction digestion and Gibson assembly of vectors for the synthesis of both riboprobes and double-stranded RNAs for in situ and RNA interference experiments, respectively. We illustrate the protocol with planaria in situ and RNAi assays, but it is applicable to any organism.17 pagesen-USThis item is likely protected under Title 17 of the U.S. Copyright Law.
