Abstract Investigations into the fate of small interfering RNA (siRNA) after transfection may unravel new ways to improve RNA interference (RNAi) efficiency. Because intracellular degradation of RNA may prevent reliable observation of fluorescence-labeled siRNA, new tools for fluorescence microscopy are warranted to cover the considerable duration of the RNAi effect. Here, the characterization and application of new fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) dye pairs for sensing the integrity of duplex siRNA is reported, which allows an assessment of the degradation status of an siRNA cell population by live cell imaging. A panel of high-yield fluorescent dyes has been investigated for their suitability as FRET pairs for the investigation of RNA inside the cell. Nine dyes in 13 FRET pairs were evaluated based on the performance in assays of photostability, cross-excitation, bleed-through, as well as on quantified changes of fluorescence as a consequence of, e.g., RNA strand hybridization and pH variation. The Atto488/Atto590 FRET pair has been applied to live cell imaging, and has revealed first aspects of unusual trafficking of intact siRNA. A time-lapse study showed highly dynamic movement of siRNA in large perinuclear structures. These and the resulting optimized FRET labeled siRNA are expected to have significant impact on future observations of labeled RNAs in living cells.

Factor C

To investigate the molecular mechanisms responsible for the temporal and spatial control of cell movements during development, we have been studying the migration of a small group of follicle cells, called the border cells, in the Drosophila ovary. Timely initiation of border cell migration requires the product of the slow border cells (slbo) locus, which encodes the Drosophila homolog of the transcription factor C/EBP. Here we report evidence that one target of C/EBP in the control of border cell migration is the FGF receptor homolog encoded by the breathless (btl) locus. btl expression in the ovary was border cell-specific, beginning just prior to the migration, and this expression was reduced in slbo mutants. btl mutations dominantly enhanced the border cell migration defects found in weak slbo alleles. Furthermore, C/EBP-independent btl expression was able to rescue the migration defects of hypomorphic slbo alleles. Purified Drosophila C/EBP bound eight sites in the btl 5′ flanking region by DNAse I footprinting. Taken together these results suggest that btl is a key, direct target for C/EBP in the regulation of border cell migration.
