ABSTRACT:
Methods are provided for the isolation of newly synthesized mRNA. Such methods involve the incorporation of biotinylated rNTP analogues into cellular mRNA, and separating biotinylated mRNA from unlabeled RNA. The methods provided herein may be used, for example, for gene discovery, drug screens and studies of the regulation of gene expression.
