UV Cross-Linking an... （一）
实验概要
Interest in RNA-protein interactions is booming as we begin to appreciate the role of RNA, not just in well-established processes such as transcription, splicing, and translation, but also in newer fields such as RNA interference and gene regulation by non-coding RNAs. CLIP is an antibody-based technique used to study RNA-protein interactions related to RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP), but differs from RIP in the use of UV radiation to cross-link RNA binding proteins to the RNA that they are bound to. This covalent bond is irreversible, allowing stringent purification conditions. Unlike RIP, CLIP provides information about the actual protein binding site on the RNA. Different types of CLIP exist, high-throughput sequencing-CLIP (HITS-CLIP), Photoactivatable-Ribonucleoside Enhanced CLIP (PAR-CLIP), and Individual CLIP (iCLIP). Here is a summary of the iCLIP protocol adapted from Konig et al. J. Vis. Exp. 2011.
