We evaluated the Ambion (Silencer Select) and Qiagen (human druggable v3.0 and human whole genome supplement v1.0 sets) siRNA libraries containing 64,781 siRNAs and 70,308 siRNAs, respectively. For annotations NCBI RefSeq release 40 was used.

FASTA file for homology evaluation
Transcriptome FASTA file to evaluate the homology of the designs using Blast (HOMOLOGY and TXNFASTA options):
human.rnaMOD.fna.zip (32MB)
Bowtie database/index for seed match evaluation
To compute the number of siRNA seed matches (seed complement frequency) a Bowtie database/index containing all annotated 3'-UTR sequences (RefSeq release 40) was generated to be used with the SEEDMATCH option (Hs_3UTR.tar.gz (26MB)).
