| Abstract | Guilt by association remains a powerful argument for assigning function in biological processes: Proteins that bind a specific RNA are strongly implicated in modulating the fate and action of that RNA. Detecting such associations is a major goal in understanding RNA function. The cross-linking and immunoprecipitation (CLIP) method described here allows assignments of RNA-binding proteins to their RNA targets by using ultraviolet (UV) cross-linking to covalently capture close (near-covalent bond distances) association of RNA with protein, followed by immunopurification of the protein partner with extraction and subsequent characterization of the RNA partner sequence(s). Pools of target sequences can be captured and their genomic origins are studied so that regulatory and other functional relationships between the protein and its RNA targets can be inferred. The advantage of this protocol is that it captures only intimately associated RNAs and proteins, and so is expected to be highly specific. Some investigators report capturing cross-links between rRNA and nonribosomal proteins in cases where ribosomes are not efficiently cleared from the lysate before immunopurification of the target protein, so the limits of specificity for the method are yet to be fully explored. Its main disadvantages are its many steps and that it may fail to work for all proteins or capture all legitimate targets of any given protein if the necessary chemical groups are not optimally arranged for photocross-linking in the complex. However, properly performed, this method should provide many useful insights into the nature of the RNA ligands for an RNA-binding protein of interest. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
