RNAi Experimental Steps
1. Order Silencer Validated siRNA to Survivin at www.ambion.com/siRNA (siRNA ID: 42862)
2. Transfect HeLa cells with 30 nM Survivin siRNA or Silencer Negative Control #1 siRNA in quadruplicate
3. Incubate 48 hoursIsolate RNA and analyze survivin mRNA levels by real-time PCR (duplicates)
4. Stain nuclei with DAPI and analyze nuclear morphology by fluorescence microscopy (duplicates) |

| |
| Conclusion: Knockdown of survivin by 80% in HeLa cells leads to nuclear morphology changes consistent with apoptosis
