Project description:Recently, we developed an in vivo technology to draw the interacting map of a specific small regulatory RNA (sRNA). We called it MAPS for MS2-affinity purification coupled with RNA sequencing. Using this technology, we already revealed the targetome of RyhB, RybB and DsrA, three well-characterized sRNAs in Escherichia coli. In this study, we performed MAPS with CyaR sRNA.

Using this technology, we already revealed the targetome of RyhB, RybB and DsrA, three well-characterized sRNAs in Escherichia coli. In this study, we perform MAPS with GcvB, a sRNA involved in amino acid metabolism.
Project description:Despite the overwhelming information about sRNAs, one of the biggest challenges in the sRNA field is characterizing sRNA targetomes. Thus, we develop a novel method to identify RNAs that interact with a specific sRNA, regardless of the type of regulation (positive or negative) or targets (mRNA, tRNA, sRNA). This method is called MAPS: MS2 affinity purification coupled with RNA sequencing. As proof of principle, we identified RNAs bound to RyhB, a well-characterized E. coli sRNA. Identification of RNAs co-purified with MS2-RyhB in a rne131 ?ryhB strain. RyhB (without MS2) was used as control
Project description:During glyW-cysT-leuZ polycistronic tRNA maturation, the 3’external transcribed spacer (3’ETS) sequence is excised and act as a sRNA sponge (Lalaouna et al., 2015). Using MS2-affinity purification coupled with RNA sequencing (MAPS), we demonstrated that 3’ETSleuZ was highly and specifically enriched by co-purification with at least two different small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs), RyhB and RybB. Both sRNAs were shown to base pair with the same region in 3’ETSleuZ. Here, we use MS2-3’ETSleuZ as bait to co-purify all interacting sRNAs and confirm 3’ETSleuZ/RyhB and 3’ETSleuZ/RybB interactions.
