Transcript
Characterization of protein binding to RNA in vivo remains a major challenge due to the complex nature of RNA and the many factors affecting its interaction with proteins. RNA binding protein or RBP-RNA affinity is measured inside live bacterial c

In this method, we quantify the binding affinity of RNA binding proteins (RBPs) to cognate and non-cognate binding sites using a simple, live, reporter assay in bacterial cells. The assay is based on repression of a reporter gene.
