Due to the vital biological importance of RNA and proteins functioning together within a cell, a protocol volume describing experimental procedures to study their interactions should find a home in many laboratories. RNA-Protein Interaction Protocols, Second Edition updates, complements, and expands upon the popular first edition by providing a collection of cutting-edge techniques developed or refined in the past few years along with tried-and-true methods. The expert contributors explore the isolation and characterization of RNA-protein complexes, the analysis and measurement of RNA-protein interaction, and related novel techniques and strategies. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular BiologyTM series format, the chapters include brief introductions to the material, lists of necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and a Notes section which highlights tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Comprehensive and up-to-date, RNA-Protein Interaction Protocols, Second Edition is an ideal guide for researchers continuing the study of this all-important biological partnership.
RNA-protein interactions play a fundamental role in gene expression and protein synthesis. Recent research into the role of RNA in cells has elucidated many more vital interactions with proteins. This book provides an up-to-date and comprehensive guide to a wide range of laboratory procedures to investigate the interactions between RNA and proteins. - ;RNA-protein interactions play a vital role in gene transcription and protein expression. Interactions such as the synthesis of mRNA by RNA polymerases, to the essential modification of RNA by the proteins of the spliceosome complex, and the highly catalytic action of the ribosome in protein synthesis, are established as being fundamental to the function of RNA. Recent research into, for example, the role of RNA as a catalyst, has elucidated many more interactions with proteins that are vital to cell function. RNA - Protein Interactions: A Practical Approach provides a clear and comprehensive guide to the experimental procedures used in studying RNA - protein interactions. The approaches covered range from those initially used to detect a novel RNA-protein interaction, various biochemical and genetic approaches to purifying and cloning RNA binding proteins, through to methods for an in depth analysis of the structural basis of the interaction. The volume includes a number of procedures that have not previously been covered in this type of manual. These include the production of site-specifically modified RNAs by enzymatic and chemical methods and in vivo screening for novel RNA - protein interactions in yeast and E. coli . This is the first volume to gather in one place this wide array of approaches for studying RNA - protein interactions. As is customary for the Practical Approach series, the writing is characterized by a clear explanatory style with many detailed protocols. This informative book will be a valuable aid to laboratory workers in biochemistry and molecular biology - graduate students, postdoctoral and senior scientists - whose research encompasses this field. -
This text provides comprehensive coverage of molecular biology at an undergraduate level, providing access to the core information in the field. It covers all the important areas of molecular biology, useful for learning and rapid revision.
The molecular characterization of RNA and its interactions with proteins is an important and exciting area of current research. Organisms utilize a variety of RNA–protein interactions to regulate the expression of their genes. This is particularly true for eukaryotes, since newly synthesized messenger RNA must be extensively modified and transported to the cytoplasm before it can be used for protein synthesis. The realization that posttranscriptional processes are critical components of gene regulation has sparked an explosion of interest in both stable ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes and transient RNA–protein interactions. RNA is conformationally flexible and can adopt complex structures that provide diverse surfaces for interactions with proteins. The fact that short RNA molecules (aptamers; see Chapter 16) can be selected to bind many different types of molecules is evidence of the structural variability of RNA. RNA molecules are rarely entirely single- or double-stranded, but usually contain multiple short duplexes interrupted by single-stranded loops and bulges; in some RNAs, such as tRNAs, the short duplexes stack on each other. Further variability is generated by the presence of non-Watson-Crick base pairs, modified nucleotides, and more complex structures, such as pseudoknots and triple-strand interactions.
