Abstract

Selective Ribosome Profiling (SeRP) is an emerging methodology, developed to capture cotranslational interactions in vivo. To date, SeRP is the only method that can directly capture, in near-codon resolution, ribosomes in action. Thus, SeRP allows us to study the mechanisms of protein synthesis and the network of protein-protein interactions that are formed already during synthesis. Here we report, in detail, the protocol for purification of ribosome- and Nascent-Chain associated factors, followed by isolation of ribosome-protected mRNA footprints, cDNA library generation and subsequent data analysis.
