An essential role of KREPB4 in RNA editing and structural integrity of the editosome in Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]
RNA editing in the sleeping sickness parasite Trypanosoma brucei remodels mitochondrial transcripts by the addition and deletion of uridylates as specified by guide RNAs.

Identification of novel components of Trypanosoma brucei editosomes [PDF]
The editosome is a multiprotein complex that catalyzes the insertion and deletion of uridylates that occurs during RNA editing in trypanosomatids. We report the identification of nine novel editosome proteins in Trypanosoma brucei.

Identification of RNA-binding Proteins
This protocol describes the extraction of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) from cell lysates. In order to pull down target RBPs, 5-bromo-UTP (BrUTP)-incorporated RNA probes are used, which are generated by in vitro transcription.

RNA-binding proteins: TRAPping RNA bases [PDF]
In Bacillus subtilis, tryptophan biosynthesis is regulated by a mechanism called attenuation. The new crystal structure of the 'trp RNA binding attenuation protein', TRAP, in complex with RNA has provided new structural insights into how proteins can bind RNA to regulate transcription and translation.

RNA‐binding properties of hnRNP proteins [PDF]
The RNA‐binding properties of the hnRNP monoparticle proteins were examined using a renaturing blotting procedure. All ‘core’ proteins are able to bind single‐stranded nucleic acids, probably not sequence‐specific. The core proteins C1 and, in one case A2 and B2, are able to bind nucleic acids which are double‐stranded or which show a high degree of ...

Domain orientation in the RNA helicase YxiN and the role of conformational changes for RNA unwinding [PDF]
The RNA helicase YxiN from Bacillus subtilis is a member of the family of DEAD box proteins. YxiN is able to unwind RNA double strands in an ATP-dependent manner. The ability to catalyse RNA rearrangement is in vivo presumably necessary for the bacterial
