Project description:we performed infrared crosslinking immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (irCLIP-seq) (Zarnegar et al., 2016) for Rbm15 to directly map its binding sites on RNA. As a principle of concept, the cells were engineered to simultaneously express emGFP-Rbm15 and Xist RNA together, as Rbm15 strongly interacts with Xist A-repeat to deposit the m6A methylation downstream. Cross-linking induced truncation site (CITS or RT stops) is the main signature occurring at our irCLIP-seq datasets. RNA meta-profile plot against normalized transcripts shows that these CITSs reside across the transcript, with 2 main peaks in transcript starts and near the stop-codon regions, in agreement with the RBM15/15B binding profile in human cells (Patil et al., 2016).Motif analysis against CITSs revealed that Rbm15 binding sites prefer U-rich stretches, namely 3 or 4 consecutive Us. This is also true for crosslinking induced mutations (CIMS).
Project description:To fine-map the position of lnc-CCTT that directly interact with CENP-C, we performed irCLIP-seq (infrared crosslingking and immunoprecipitation followed by high throughput RNA sequencing), which utilize ultraviolet (UV) light to induce zero-length covalent bonds between RNA and the directly attached protein and an infrared-dye-conjugated and biotinylated ligation adaptor to isolate RNA fragments. irCLIP-seq identified a possible CENP-C binding region of lnc-CCTT ranging from nucleotides 127-177nt.
Project description:The complexity of transcriptome-wide protein-RNA interaction networks is incompletely understood. While emerging studies are greatly expanding the known universe of RNA-binding proteins, methods for the discovery and characterization of protein-RNA interactions remain resource intensive and technically challenging. Here we introduce an advanced UV-C crosslinking and immunoprecipitation platform, irCLIP, which provides an ultraefficient, fast, nonisotopic method for the detection of protein-RNA interactions using 100-fold less material than standard protocols.
