Project description:Gradient fractions of RNAi of XAC1 (Tb927.7.2780) in Trypanosoma brucei bloodstream forms. RNAi was induced using tetracycline and cell extracts were fractionated into polysomal and monosome-non-ribosome-associated fractions.
Project description:RBP9-TAP was expressed in bloodstream T. brucei and bound mRNA was pulled down using IgG beads and eluted via TEV-protease cleavage. rRNA was depleted using RNAseH and rRNA hybridizing oligos.
