Stress granule (SG)-based RNA interference (RNAi) screening is a powerful method to discover factors that control protein synthesis and aggregation, as well as regulators of SG assembly and disassembly. Here, we describe how to set up and optimize a large-scale siRNA screen, and give a detailed outline for the automated quantification of SGs as a visual readout. Hit evaluation via calculated Z scores provides a list of candidates for further in-depth studies.
