Abstract
Proteins bind mRNA through their entire life cycle from transcription to degradation. We analyzed c-Myc mRNA protein interactors in vivo using the HyPR-MS method to capture the crosslinked mRNA by hybridization and then analyzed the bound proteins using mass spectrometry proteomics. Using HyPR-MS, 229 c-Myc mRNA-binding proteins were identified, confirming previously proposed interactors, suggesting new interactors, and providing information related to the roles and pathways known to involve c-Myc. We performed structural and functional analysis of these proteins and validated our findings with a combination of RIP-qPCR experiments, in vitro results released in past studies, publicly available RIP- and eCLIP-seq data, and results from software tools for predicting RNA-protein interactions.
