Problems faced with single siRNA/pools of 3-4 siRNAs
Off-target spiking experiment demon-strates high complexity pools > 15 siRNAs required to dilute off-target effects.
Off-target effects that give rise to variable, mixed phenotypes
For the first �me, medium to high-throughput RNAi screening with siPOOLs is enabled with the siPOOL human kinase library.
Key Benefits
Reliable RNAi screening results
The excep�onal targe�ng specificity and efficient gene silencing by siPOOLs: • reduces false posi�ves and improves detec�on of true hits • eases data analysis • improves consistency between screens
Save �me and resources • Simplify screening with one siPOOL per gene • Obtain results quickly (easily applied across cell lines with results in days) • Avoid inefficient tes�ng of mul�ple siRNAs to confirm hits
Variable results between siRNAs limit data interpreta�on
Falkenberg et al. show that siRNA results are widely divergent upon deconvolution of siGENOME smartpools.

siPOOL Human Kinases (83 siPOOLs, 1-3 nM)
70 % KD
Data with the siPOOL Human Kinase Library
Reproducible phenotypes
siPOOLs efficiently counter siRNA variability. Two siPOOLs against the same gene (36 tested) produced more reproducible phenotypes than single siRNAs.
Efficient gene silencing at low nanomolar concentra�ons
Efficient at very low concentra�ons, siPOOLs can be mul�plexed with other treatments or siPOOLs without risk of side-effects (applicable for synthe�c lethality screens).
Majority of human kinase siPOOLs tested (71 of 83) produced ≥ 70% gene knockdown at 1-3 nM in standard cell lines (A549, MCF7, HeLa) as measured by rt-qPCR.
