RNA structure determination using nuclease digestion.
Determining RNA structures (i.e., single- and double-strand regions) is often useful when assessing the potential for certain RNAs to interact with proteins or when determining whether RNAs that are dissimilar in sequence can form the same structure. A number of ribonucleases (RNases) have been used to map RNA structure, but many of these are no longer available. However, three commonly availab...
متن کاملRNA structure determination using SAXS data.
Exploiting the experimental information from small-angle X-ray solution scattering (SAXS) in conjunction with structure prediction algorithms can be advantageous in the case of ribonucleic acids (RNA), where global restraints on the 3D fold are often lacking. Traditional usage of SAXS data often starts by attempting to reconstruct the molecular shape ab initio, which is subsequently used to ass...
متن کاملRNA Three-Dimensional Structure Determination Using Experimental Constraints
RNAs function not only as bridges between the genetic information stored in DNA and the final protein products, as stated in the Central Dogma; recently, RNA has also been found to play diverse roles in almost every aspect of cell life (Cruz and Westhof, 2009; Nilsen, 2007; Sharp, 2009; Wan et al., 2011), from regulating transcription and translation (e.g., siRNA, miRNA, or riboswitch regulator...
متن کاملAssay of DNA-RNA hybrids by S1 nuclease digestion and adsorption to DEAE-cellulose filters.
A fast and accurate assay procedure for DNA-RNA hybrids is described in which exhaustive digestion of unhybridized DNA with S1 nuclease is followed by binding of hybrids to filter discs of DEAE-cellulose. The digested DNA can be efficiently washed from the filters so that background levels of 0.1-0.2% of input tracer DNA can be achieved, in contrast to the much higher (approximately 1-5%) backg...
متن کاملThe influence of chromatin structure on the distribution of DNA repair synthesis studied by nuclease digestion
The influence of chromatin structure on the distribution of DNA repair synthesis was studied by enzymatic digestion of "repair labeled" nuclei of mouse mammary cells: "repair labeled" nuclei were isolated from pregnancy mammary tissue fragments, treated in vitro with methylmethanesulfonate (MMS) or methylnitrosourea (MNU), and pulse-labeled with 3H-thymidine in the presence of hydroxyurea in th...
