CA 2440845

The invention concerns a method for identifying RNA-binding molecules, comprising the steps of: predicting the structure of an RNA-fragment by an in silico method, choosing a suitable predicted RNA-fragment, synthesizing the cDNA-fragment corresponding to the predicted RNA-fragment, inserting the cDNA- fragment in the upstream proximity of a reporter assay gene, which reporter assay gene produces a signal upon translation, thereby forming a reporter construct, and performing a reporter gene assay, which assay monitors the interaction between a molecule to be tested for RNA-binding and the RNA- fragment of the reporter construct. Furthermore, the invention relates to the use of specific RNA-fragments in the method of the invention.

L'invention concerne un procédé pour identifier des molécules de liaison à l'ARN, consistant à prévoir la structure d'un fragment d'ARN par une méthode in silico, à choisir un fragment d'ARN prévu adapté, à synthétiser le fragment d'ADNc correspondant au fragment d'ARN prévu, à insérer le fragment d'ADNc dans la région voisine amont d'un gène d'essai reporter, lequel produit un signal après traduction, de façon à former une construction reporter, puis à effectuer un essai de gène reporter, cet essai contrôlant l'interaction entre une molécule à tester pour son affinité à l'ARN et le fragment d'ARN de la construction reporter. L'invention concerne en outre l'utilisation de fragments d'ARN spécifiques dans la mise en oeuvre du procédé selon l'invention.
