Abstract:
The yeast three-hybrid system can be used to identify a protein partner of a known RNA sequence by screening a cDNA library fused to a transcription activation domain, with a hybrid RNA as 'bait.' Most commonly, such screens are performed to identify proteins that interact with a given RNA in vivo.
