[Abstract]  

RNA secondary structures are highly dynamic and subject to prompt changes in response to the environment. Temperature in particular has a strong impact on RNA structural conformation, and temperature-sensitive RNA hairpin structures have been exploited by multiple organisms to modify the rate of translation in response to temperature changes. Observing RNA structural changes in real-time over a range of temperatures is therefore highly desirable. A variety of approaches exists that probe RNA secondary structures, but many of these either require large amount and/or extensive processing of the RNA or cannot be applied under physiological conditions, rendering the observation of structural dynamics over a range of temperatures difficult. Here, we describe the use of a dually fluorescently

[摘要]  [摘要] RNA二级结构是高度动态的,可能会提示Ç响应于所述环境hanges。温度尤其会对RNA结构构象产生强烈影响,并且多种生物已利用温度敏感的RNA发夹结构来改变翻译速率以响应温度变化。因此,非常需要在一定温度范围内实时观察RNA结构变化。存在多种探测RNA二级结构的方法,但是这些方法中的许多要么需要大量和/或大量加工RNA,要么不能在生理条件下应用,这使得在一定温度范围内观察结构动力学变得困难。在这里,我们描述了使用双重荧光标记的RNA寡核苷酸(含有所预测的发夹结构),其可用于监测由共振能量转移(FRET)在不同温度下与微妙RNA-结构动力学RNA浓度低至200nM的。FRET效率随荧光团距离的变化而变化;因此,高效率可以与稳定的发夹结构相关联,而FRET效率的降低反映了发夹的部分打开或该结构的不稳定。相同的RNA序列也可以用于圆二色谱等离子光谱学,以观察在给定温度下RNA二级结构的整体变化。这些方法的组合使我们能够在一定温度范围内实时监测RNA结构动力学,并将结构变化与植物生物学表型相关联。
