RESUMEN
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) regulate key aspects of RNA processing including alternative splicing, mRNA degradation and localization by physically binding RNA molecules. Current methods to map these interactions, such as CLIP, rely on purifying single proteins at a time. Our new method, ePRINT, maps RBP-RNA interaction networks on a global scale without purifying individual RBPs. ePRINT uses exoribonuclease XRN1 to precisely map the 5' end of the RBP binding site and uncovers direct and indirect targets of an RBP of interest. Importantly, ePRINT can also uncover RBPs that are differentially activated between cell fate transitions, including neural progenitor differentiation into neurons.
