    Abstract: Recently, we have established a novel assay to detect interaction of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) with RNA, using biotinylated RNA oligos to capture RBPs with Western blot of specific antibodies against RBPs. The assay detects RNA binding more confidently than the traditional gel shift assay. Starting with completely randomized RNA oligos from 5mer ... Show More
