CRISPR-Guided Proximity Labeling of RNA-Protein Interactions. [PDF]
Proximity labeling employs modified biotin ligases or peroxidases that produce reactive radicals to covalently label proximate proteins with biotin in living cells. The resulting biotinylated proteins can then be isolated and identified. A combination of

Computational tools to study RNA-protein complexes
RNA is the key player in many cellular processes such as signal transduction, replication, transport, cell division, transcription, and translation. These diverse functions are accomplished through interactions of RNA with proteins.

Template-Based Modeling of Protein-RNA Interactions. [PDF]
Protein-RNA complexes formed by specific recognition between RNA and RNA-binding proteins play an important role in biological processes. More than a thousand of such proteins in human are curated and many novel RNA-binding proteins are to be discovered.

RNA Proximity Labeling: A New Detection Tool for RNA–Protein Interactions
Multiple cellular functions are controlled by the interaction of RNAs and proteins. Together with the RNAs they control, RNA interacting proteins form RNA protein complexes, which are considered to serve as the true regulatory units for post ...

An improved method for surface immobilisation of RNA: application to small Non-Coding RNA - mRNA pairing [PDF]
Characterisation of RNA and its intermolecular interactions is increasing in importance as the inventory of known RNA functions continues to expand. RNA-RNA interactions are central to post-transcriptional gene regulation mechanisms in bacteria, and the ...

Essential Assembly Factor Rpf2 Forms Novel Interactions within the 5S RNP in
Ribosome biogenesis is a highly complex and conserved cellular process that is responsible for making ribosomes. During this process, there are several assembly steps that function as regulators to ensure proper ribosome formation.

Novel endoribonucleases as central players in various pathways of eukaryotic RNA metabolism [PDF]
For a long time it has been assumed that the decay of RNA in eukaryotes is mainly carried out by exoribonucleases, which is in contrast to bacteria, where endoribonucleases are well documented to initiate RNA degradation.

Crystal structure of Caulobacter crescentus polynucleotide phosphorylase reveals a mechanism of RNA substrate channelling and RNA degradosome assembly [PDF]
Polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase) is an exoribonuclease that cleaves single-stranded RNA substrates with 3′–5′ directionality and processive behaviour.

Maf1-mediated repression of RNA polymerase III transcription inhibits tRNA degradation via RTD pathway [PDF]
tRNA precursors, which are transcribed by RNA polymerase III, undergo end-maturation, splicing and base modifications. Hypomodified tRNAs, such as tRNAVal(AAC), lacking 7-methylguanosine and 5-methylcytidine modifications, are subject to degradation by a
