Neuronal aging causes mislocalization of splicing proteins and unchecked cellular stress.
Nature neuroscience · 2025 · 28(6): 1174-1184
Aging is one of the most prominent risk factors for neurodegeneration, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying the deterioration of old neurons are mostly unknown. To efficiently study neurodegeneration in the context of aging, we transdifferentiated primary human fibroblasts from aged …

Long-read Ribo-STAMP simultaneously measures transcription and translation with isoform resolution.
Genome research · 2024 · 34(11): 2012-2024
Transcription and translation are intertwined processes in which mRNA isoforms are crucial intermediaries. However, methodological limitations in analyzing translation at the mRNA isoform level have left gaps in our understanding of critical biological processes. To address these gaps, we developed …

High-sensitivity in situ capture of endogenous RNA-protein interactions in fixed cells and primary tissues.
Nature communications · 2024 · 15(1): 7067
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have pivotal functions in RNA metabolism, but current methods are limited in retrieving RBP-RNA interactions within endogenous biological contexts. Here, we develop INSCRIBE (IN situ Sensitive Capture of RNA-protein Interactions in Biological Environments), circumventing the challenges through …

Mudskipper detects combinatorial RNA binding protein interactions in multiplexed CLIP data.
Cell genomics · 2024 · 4(7): 100603
The uncovering of protein-RNA interactions enables a deeper understanding of RNA processing. Recent multiplexed crosslinking and immunoprecipitation (CLIP) technologies such as antibody-barcoded eCLIP (ABC) dramatically increase the throughput of mapping RNA binding protein (RBP) binding sites. However, multiplex CLIP datasets …

Expanded palette of RNA base editors for comprehensive RBP-RNA interactome studies.
Nature communications · 2024 · 15(1): 875
RNA binding proteins (RBPs) are key regulators of RNA processing and cellular function. Technologies to discover RNA targets of RBPs such as TRIBE (targets of RNA binding proteins identified by editing) and STAMP (surveying targets by APOBEC1 mediated profiling) utilize …

Aberrant NOVA1 function disrupts alternative splicing in early stages of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Acta neuropathologica · 2022 · 144(3): 413-435
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease characterized by aberrant alternative splicing (AS). Nuclear loss and cytoplasmic accumulation of the splicing factor TDP-43 in motor neurons (MN) are hallmarks of ALS at late stages of the disease. However, it …

fSHAPE, fSHAPE-eCLIP, and SHAPE-eCLIP probe transcript regions that interact with specific proteins.
STAR protocols · 2021 · 2(3): 100762
Selective 2'-hydroxyl acylation analyzed by primer extension (SHAPE) structure probing techniques characterize the secondary structure of RNA molecules, which influence their functions and interactions. A variation of SHAPE, footprinting SHAPE (fSHAPE), probes RNA in the presence and absence of protein …

Robust single-cell discovery of RNA targets of RNA-binding proteins and ribosomes.
Nature methods · 2021 · 18(5): 507-519
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are critical regulators of gene expression and RNA processing that are required for gene function. Yet the dynamics of RBP regulation in single cells is unknown. To address this gap in understanding, we developed STAMP (Surveying Targets …

The RNA Helicase DDX6 Controls Cellular Plasticity by Modulating P-Body Homeostasis.
Cell stem cell · 2019 · 25(5): 622-638.e13
Post-transcriptional mechanisms have the potential to influence complex changes in gene expression, yet their role in cell fate transitions remains largely unexplored. Here, we show that suppression of the RNA helicase DDX6 endows human and mouse primed embryonic stem cells …

Distinct and shared functions of ALS-associated proteins TDP-43, FUS and TAF15 revealed by multisystem analyses.
Nature communications · 2016 · 7: 12143
The RNA-binding protein (RBP) TAF15 is implicated in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). To compare TAF15 function to that of two ALS-associated RBPs, FUS and TDP-43, we integrate CLIP-seq and RNA Bind-N-Seq technologies, and show that TAF15 binds to ∼4,900 RNAs …
