Decoding RNA–protein interactions using high-throughput methods [PDF]
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) constitute a diverse class of proteins essential for every stage of the gene expression process. Many RBPs are also linked to human diseases and pathologies.

Emerging Role of Circular RNA–Protein Interactions [PDF]
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are emerging as novel regulators of gene expression in various biological processes. CircRNAs regulate gene expression by interacting with cellular regulators such as microRNAs and RNA binding proteins (RBPs) to regulate ...

Specificity and nonspecificity in RNA–protein interactions [PDF]
To fully understand the regulation of gene expression, it is critical to quantitatively define whether and how RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) discriminate between alternative binding sites in RNAs. Here, we describe new methods that measure protein binding to large numbers of RNA variants, and ways to analyse and interpret data obtained by these ...

Interplay between RNA‐protein interactions and RNA structures in gene regulation [PDF]
Cellular RNAs are not linear single‐stranded stretches of nucleic acids as depicted in textbook cartoons but fold into secondary and tertiary structures through intra‐ and intermolecular base‐pairing.

Temporal-iCLIP captures co-transcriptional RNA-protein interactions [PDF]
Dynamic RNA-protein interactions govern the co-transcriptional packaging of RNA polymerase II derived transcripts. Here the authors use temporal-iCLIP which combines transcriptional synchronisation with UV cross-linking of RNA-protein complexes to reveal

Viral RNA Interactome: The Ultimate Researcher’s Guide to RNA–Protein Interactions [PDF]
RNA molecules in the cell are bound by a multitude of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) with a variety of regulatory consequences. Often, interactions with these RNA-binding proteins are facilitated by the complex secondary and tertiary structures of RNA ...

Asian Zika virus can acquire generic African-lineage mutations during in utero infection
The Zika virus 2015 epidemic showed an unusual phenotype for human flaviviruses, specifically fetal infection. We previously showed that in utero inoculation with the Asian Zika virus isolated from the human sample causes persistent infection in porcine ...

'Oming in on RNA–protein interactions [PDF]
Welcome to the RBPome RNA has consistently broken dogmas, owing to its multitude of unexpected functions. However, RNA does faithfully adhere to one rule: it always functions through interactions with proteins. The studies in this issue focus on the rapidly expanding repertoire of diverse RNA– protein interactions [1] and their functional roles and ...
