Abstract:
In this chapter, we provide a method for silencing target genes in epidermal cells via RNA interference. Specifically, we describe a protocol for transfection-mediated delivery of small interfering RNA oligonucleotides (siRNA). Functional assays are indispensable to characterize the biological consequences of gene knockdowns, and we also provide a method to analyze alterations in cell adhesion properties, consequent to knockdown of genes involved in this process.
