Project description:We identified the precise genome-wide binding sites for all SR proteins, using iCLIP-seq SR proteins were encoded on stable transgenes, transfected in S2 cells, FLAG-tag immunopurified, and the bound RNA purified and subjected to RNA-seq. The resulting reads (CLIP tags) were aligned to the Drosophila genome and generated 38,695-5,900,000 unique CLIP tags for each SR-protein replicate.
Project description:We used GFP-tagged SR proteins expressed at endogenous levels and iCLIP to compare the extent and pattern of SR protein binding to expression-matched lincRNAs and protein-coding RNAs
Project description:We used GFP-tagged SR proteins expressed at endogenous levels and iCLIP to identify and compare endogenous RNA targets of individual SR proteins, map the preferential sites of binding, compare binding pattern and binding motifs between family members and to NXF1 and quantify binding of SR proteins and NXF1 to spliced versus unspliced RNAs to study the role of SR proteins in mRNA export via NXF1.
