Project description:RBM8A is an RNA-binding protein. To identify RNAs interacting with RBM8A, we employed RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) to enrich associated RNAs, followed by high-throughput sequencing and bioinformatics approaches to characterize the RBM8A-bound RNA profile.
Project description:To explain the possible molecular mechanism underlying the oncogenic roles of IGF2BP3 in EC, we employed RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays to identify the lncRNAs involved in the regulation of IGF2BP3 function. RIP experiments, high-throughput sequencing and data analysis were performed by Seqhealth Tech (Wuhan, China). RIP assays were carried out on Ishikawa cells. The cells were lysed, and the lysis samples for immunoprecipitation reactions were incubated with anti-IGF2BP3 antibody (ab177477, Abcam, USA) or rabbit IgG (Cell Signaling Technology). The library products were enriched, quantified and finally sequenced on the Illumina PE150 platform.One hundred ninety-one candidates as IGF2BP3-interacting lncRNAs were identified in the RIP-seq results.
Project description:We exploited the methylation genome-scale screening RRBS to correlate the RNA species physically associated with DNMT1 and proximal to the annotated genes to the methylation status of the corresponding loci. Out of 15275 non ambiguous gene loci identified by DNMT1 RIP-Seq, 9436 loci were covered by RRBS. These 9436 loci were clustered according to the fold of specific DNMT1 library peaks enrichment (defined as the ratio of the sum of the area under the curve of specific DNMT1 library peaks covering the gene loci). Genes were then stratified by the expression profile ultimately leading to the epitranscriptome map, a comprehensive map cross-referencing DNMT1-interacting transcripts to (i) DNA methylation and (ii) gene expression profile.
