The fluorogenic ribonuclease protection (FRIP) assay was used to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in commercially produced fish products. By using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between fluorophore and quencher labeled probes, the species-specific cleavage of sample RNA was detected by measuring the fluorescence intensity during the FRIP assay. We were able to discriminate raw and thermally processed eel and tuna species using the FRIP-based SNP detection method. Furthermore, the intensity of fluorescence was correlated with the mutant/wild-type ratio. These results suggest that the FRIP assay is a useful method for the in situ confirmation of labels of fishery foods during food production.

The study aimed to identify TUG1 as an essential regulator of apoptosis in HT22 (mouse hippocampal neuronal cells) by direct interaction with the RNA-binding protein HuR. In order to study the role of TUG1 in the context of ischemia, we used mouse hippocampal neuronal cells treated with oxyglucose deprivation to establish an in-vitro ischemia model. A bioinformatic analysis and formaldehyde RNA immunoprecipitation (fRIP) were used to investigate the biological functions.

Long noncoding RNAs are thought to regulate gene expression by organizing protein complexes through unclear mechanisms. XIST controls the inactivation of an entire X chromosome in female placental mammals. Here we develop and integrate several orthogonal structure-interaction methods to demonstrate that XIST RNA-protein complex folds into an evolutionarily conserved modular architecture.

Background: Ticks are blood-sucking arthropods that can transmit diseases to humans and animals. These arthropods are the second most important vectors of pathogens. MicroRNAs are a class of conserved small noncoding RNAs that play regulatory roles in gene expression at the post-transcriptional level.

Haemaphysalis qinghaiensis as an endemic species in China mainly infests domestic animals and causes great harm to animals and humans in Northwestern plateau. However, there is no information about genetic diversity within the recently established populations of this tick species. Therefore, the present study analyzed the fragments of mitochondrial 16S rDNA, COI and the nuclear gene ITS1 of 56 H.
