Direct isolation of specific RNA-interacting proteins using a novel affinity medium
Isolation of proteins that specifically interact with a given RNA or RNA regulation element is essential for studies on the molecular mechanisms of gene expression. Here, a novel method for direct isolation of such interacting proteins is described. It uses an affinity medium that consists of an interacting RNA with an artificially added 'tail', which is annealed to one end of a DNA 'arm', the ...
متن کاملA tandem affinity purification tag of TGA2 for isolation of interacting proteins in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Tandem affinity purification (TAP) tagging provides a powerful tool for isolating interacting proteins in vivo. TAP-tag purification offers particular advantages for the identification of stimulus-induced protein interactions. Type II bZIP transcription factors (TGA2, TGA5 and TGA6) play key roles in pathways that control salicylic acid, ethylene, xenobiotic and reactive oxylipin signaling. Alt...
متن کاملIsolation and identification of cell-specific microRNAs targeting a messenger RNA using a biotinylated anti-sense oligonucleotide capture affinity technique
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate expression by translational repression or messenger RNA (mRNA) degradation. Although numerous bioinformatic prediction models exist to identify miRNA-mRNA interactions, experimental validation of bona fide interactions can be difficult and laborious. Few methods can comprehensively identify miRNAs that target a single mRNA. We have deve...
متن کاملIsolation of specific and high-affinity RNA aptamers against NS3 helicase domain of hepatitis C virus.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV)-encoded nonstructural protein 3 (NS3) possesses protease, NTPase, and helicase activities, which are considered essential for viral proliferation. Thus, HCV NS3 is a good putative therapeutic target protein for the development of anti-HCV agents. In this study, we isolated specific RNA aptamers to the helicase domain of HCV NS3 from a combinatorial RNA library with 40-nu...
متن کاملO-5: Identification of Novel ImmunodominantEpididymal Sperm Proteins Using CombinatorialApproach
Background: Alteration in the protein signatures of functionally immature testicular spermatozoa occurs during their journey through the epididymis. This leads to acquisition of sperm domain specific functions essential for successful fertilization. Epididymal sperm proteins are preferred targets for immunocontraception as well as in elucidating the causes of infertility. The Background of the ...
