Most current methods to identify cell-specific RNA binding protein (RBP) targets require analyzing an extract, a strategy that is problematic with small amounts of material. To address this issue, we developed TRIBE, a genetic method that expresses an RBP of interest fused to the catalytic domain of the RNA editing enzyme ADAR. TRIBE therefore performs Adenosine-to-Inosine editing on candidate ...
